Accessibility
The main developed area of Longmire has paved road and paths. In winter, paths can be snow covered and often icy. Buildings and restrooms are accessible year-round. Approximately half of the un-paved Trail of the Shadows (roughly 0.3 miles) is wheelchair accessible, though the trail can be covered in deep snow in winter. Other trails in the area can be steep and challenging.
