Lots of good riding there when there's enough snow. I've ridden from the gun range to Dunbar lake many times.

wondering if you could give me some more info on where this is and where to unload etc. Coming next weekend and bringing my girlfriend who has never ridden in the mountains. Going to take her to forester but would
be great if we could find some other riding to do. Been on quite a few roads with quads but have no idea what is doable in the winter on sleds. Thanks

Busy day yesterday, over 60 sleds.

You can park at the intersection of Horse thief and Westside road. The skidder roads around steam boat go all over, easy to get lost. A GPS is a good thing to have.
Or park at dog leg Lake on West side road. Ride to Forster or Sam's folly lake or all the way to Dunbar lake if you're good at route finding.
A back country road map book will help.
