North Tenmile Creek is an excellent winter adventure into the backcountry. Wichita Mountain and Chief Mountain tower around you as you travel through the Eagles Nest Wilderness Area. The trail begins climbing steeply and quickly right in the beginning but this is the steepest section. Ski poles for snowshoers is a good idea and if you are skiing skins will be helpful. Plan on a full day for this adventure.
