Difficulty	Distance	Steps	Elevation Gain	USFS Trail #'s
Easy	1.0 Miles One-way	2,031 est.	700	635, 79

Steps are estimated from the hike distance and a difficulty-based stride length.

Formula: distance in miles × 5,280 feet ÷ stride length

Stride length is adjusted because tougher trails usually shorten each step:

Difficulty	Stride length
Unknown	2.2 ft
Accessible	2.3 ft
Easy	2.6 ft
Moderate	2.1 ft
Difficult	2.0 ft
More Difficult	1.9 ft
Strenuous	1.8 ft

The result is rounded to the nearest whole step and shown as an estimate.

Notes

On a clear day, views of Snowking mountain can be stunning. A massive rock slide, blocking the path of Otter Creek, lead to the formation of Slide Lake.
