About

Crow Lake Way Trailhead is a multi-season recreation facility located along Highway 410 in Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. During summer months (May 1 through October 31), it functions as a trailhead providing access to Crow Lake Way Trail #953, which enters the Norse Peak Wilderness. The trailhead is popular with both hikers and equestrians, offering stock facilities including a ramp and hitch-rails with adequate parking for horse trailers. In winter (November 1 through April 30), the facility transitions to a designated sno-park offering 4 parking spaces and access to non-motorized winter recreation. The area connects to the Pleasant Valley Trail System, which features 6 miles of groomed cross-country ski trails along with additional marked routes for skiing and snowshoeing. This is a non-motorized winter recreation area. The trailhead sits at 3,400 feet elevation near Andrews Creek. Wilderness regulations apply within Norse Peak Wilderness boundaries. This is a day-use facility only and does not offer overnight camping.
