Kapka Butte Sno-Park Construction
Project Overview
The Western Federal Lands Highway Division (WFLHD) of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in partnership with the Deschutes National Forest of the US Forest Service (FS) is proposing to fund the construction of a new sno-park near Kapka Butte to provide more high-elevation parking for winter recreation along an established snowplowing route. The proposed facility would provide for a mix of vehicle parking, including vehicles towing trailers and spaces designed for smaller vehicles.
The new sno-park would be located between Kapka Butte and the junction of Forest Roads 46 (Cascade Lakes Highway) and 45 (Sunriver Cutoff). Several other sno-parks currently provide parking spaces in the area, they include Meissner, Wanoga, Swampy, Vista Butte and the Dutchman Sno Parks.
