Snow has come to the mountain! Let's spend a day in a winter wonderland. This is a fair amount of mileage for a snowshoe trip. If we have to break powder, we may not get to all the lakes. Everyone should be able to maintain a 2 mph hiking pace, we will likely go slower depending on conditions.
Leader permission is required. If you have a badge for Basic or Intermediate Snowshoeing or Alpine Scrambling or Climbing, you may check the box "The leader of this trip has explicitly given me permission... "
