The K Trail, part of the Winter Grooming Snowmobile system for over-snow vehicle (OSV)/snowmobile use, is a short, fairly hilly connector trail between the A and B Trails south of the Mammoth Scenic Loop. Groomed and marked with orange diamonds, the trail climbs from east to west, winding through open Jeffrey Pine forest and domeland. It can be combined with a number of other trails (A, B, H and G) to make a loop. The Winter Grooming Snowmobile System is groomed by the U.S. Forest Service with funding provided by the California Department of Parks and Recreation, using monies generated by registration fees and gasoline taxes.

Avalanche Forecast for 02/21/2025
- AVALANCHE FORECAST: A small Wet Loose avalanche, a cornice falling, or the weight of a person could trigger a dangerous avalanche breaking deep within the snowpack. Choosing low-consequence terrain with low slope angles, avoiding slopes with hazards overhead, and maintaining wide safety margins are the best strategies for managing the avalanche problems.
