Description:
Looking for a fun winter outdoor adventure?
Join our experienced Outdoor Recreation team
on a fun-filled trip to Lolo Pass.
We will explore deep into the snowy woods and
learn about snowshoe travel off the beaten path. Travel will
include off-trail, uphill and downhill through deep snow.
This course will introduce: how to properly traverse snow
banks, ascend and descend snow covered slopes, understanding
topographical maps by viewing the map and translating to the
landscape, use GPS units to mark waypoints and practice using
compasses. If time permits we will even build a snow-cave. Then
after a day of snowshoeing we will stop at Lolo Hot Springs for a
warm soak, entrance fee is covered in your trip cost.
All gear, transportation and instruction is provided. Please dress
