SnowShoeing/XC Skiing

See Schedule listed below.

Depending on the conditions, this group meets throughout the winter. The locations selected for these winter sports are suitable for both cross-country skiing and snowshoeing.

The typical itinerary finds us meeting at 11 a.m. and skiing for about 1.5 hours and then going somewhere for lunch together. We typically separate skiers from "shoers" with someone leading each group. Trails are not usually difficult as this is considered a recreational/socializing function and not to be too strenuous.Harris-Joe.GIF (93523 bytes)

If anyone has any questions, please ask.

Let's hope we have a snowy season.
