Are you curious about snowshoeing? Maybe you think you’d enjoy it, but want to test it out before purchasing new gear. This event is for you! Emily will walk through some snowshoeing basics and then we’ll hit the trails. Rental gear and scholarships available.

We'll start at the trailhead, reviewing gear basics and helping everyone get acclimated with their equipment. From there, we’ll set off on a packed trail to get used to walking in snowshoes on a relatively even surface. After we’ve built up our confidence, we’ll leave the trail and start trudging around in the snow. On the powder, you will experience the feeling of floating in the snow. We will snowshoe up to 3 miles at a leisurely pace.

❄️ Mileage: Approximately 2-3 miles along uneven terrain
❄️ Elevation Gain: <500 feet
❄️ Estimated Snowshoeing Time: About 2-2.5 hours
