Williams Valley Winter Sports Area is located six miles northwest of Alpine at an altitude of 8,700 feet. Drive 1.5 miles north from Alpine on US Highway 191 and turn west for 4.5 miles on paved FR 249. FR 249 is plowed reasonably soon after a storm. The Alpine Ranger District has set aside an area for snowmobiling. There is a sign along the road designating that you are “Leaving a Motorized Restricted Area.” There is a parking area next to a vault toilet; this is where the snowmobile area begins.
