Instructing on field trips is one of the steps towards becoming a Snowshoe trip leader. But even if you aren’t interested in leading trips, instructing is a great way to get involved and to help other people learn how to travel efficiently and stay safe in the winter environment.

NOTE: This session is NOT a requirement to instruct at courses this season. It is a recommended activity.
