About this trail

The ranger station is open intermittently during the summer. A self-pay station is available for the park entrance fee, and a self-registration board is available for wilderness permits if the ranger station is closed. Park information is posted outside the building. This is the trailhead for the North Vista Trail, which goes to Exclamation Point and Green Mountain. Closed in winter.
