Stoddard Creek Cross Country Ski Trail

         

Looking for some fun in the snow? This cross country ski trail is an enjoyable time for all.  Ski access to loop trail is from the Stoddard Creek interchange off Interstate 15, which is four miles north of Spencer, Idaho. This trail is not groomed, but we do ski track and maintain the trail. The starting point of the 3.2 mile loop is well signed, with blue diamonds marking the trail.
