Todd Lake Hike

Did this hike as a beautiful tour in the snow. The roads were closed so we parked at Mt Bachelor and started at the Nordic Center. We both used split boards to tour out to the lake and back. There were quite a few snowmobilers but they were only allowed on the main roads which were closed to regular motorized vehicles, so we only saw them twice. The rest of the time was quiet and very serene. Most people either snowshoe this or cross country ski. We did not circle around the lake once we got there, so our total mileage was about 4.2 miles in about 1 hour and 38 minutes. The path was fairly tracked out when we went, aside from the several times we cut across the untracked powder for the fun of it. Not too many people that we passed, however we started later in the day around 1 or so. We passed one group who had toured up the ridge at the other side of the lake for a few great ski runs earlier in the day, so that is a great option if you want to get some downhill in as well. Absolutely gorgeous hike in the winter, highly recommended!
