Page Mountain Sno-Park is a winter parking area for getting out in the snow. From Cave Junction, take Happy Camp/Grayback Road about 10.6 miles to Forest Road 48 (Indian Creek Road). It's open sunrise to sunset for day use only.

From November 1 to April 30, you need an Oregon Sno-Park permit on your windshield. It costs $4 a day, $9 for 3 days, or $25 for the season. DMV offices and permit agents sell them, and annual permits are also sold online through DMV2U. The fine without one is $30.

Check before you go. The latest Forest Service notice we found, from winter 2023–24, said Road 48 had failed in places and wouldn't be plowed. We found nothing newer, so call the ranger district and check TripCheck.
