This trail leaves Road 150 and climbs through open pine forests and across rocky slopes. The trail parallels the Yakama Indian Reservation boundary for 1 mile before ending at the junction with Trail No. 9.
The trail was named after Ben Snipes, a cattleman. Cattle weren't grazed here until 1912. This marked the beginning of a number of disputes between sheepherders and cattlemen, known locally as the Range Wars.
Along this lightly used trails are the Aiken Lava Bed and meadows. The Aiken Lave Bed is 4-miles long and approximately one-half mile wide. The lava bed was formed by an eruption of Mt. Adams between 4,000 and 2,000 years ago.
Mountain bikes are prohibited above the junctions of Trails No. 71 and No. 11.
