Will roads be clear?? Will the conditions be snow or ice??? Will the sun peek through?? Will winds be below 50mph??? Ha!! No one knows!!! So...thinking positively...LET'S GO!!! Join us at Lassen National Park to snowshoe in it's glory!!!

We will carpool from the Park and Ride, drive to Lassen. Then we start snowshoeing from Kohm-Yah-Mah-Nee Visitor Center, up the road. This part is easy and perfect for beginner snowshoers. Any kind of snowshoes will do, it's just walking.

About 1.5 miles up at Windy Point, we veer off the road to ascend Diamond Peak, about another mile. This is more challenging with the elevation gain. Mountain snowshoes help. Poles are recommended. Ahhhh....and the sense of accomplishment!!! See the beauty of the Park in winter, feel the crisp mountain air, laugh with friends on the summit rocks as we soak in the scene, ...it is a treasured annual trip.

Wear clothing for winter conditions, ... waterproof boots really help. Bring snowshoes, poles, wind jacket, fleece, hat, gloves,. Winter is more fun when you are prepared and warm.

**It's part of the annual tradition to bring hot drinks and snacks to share once we return to the Visitor Center. A thermos of warm drink is wonderful. Some of us will have hot cocoa, wine (for non drivers) and chocolates to pass around.**

Snowshoes can be rented at Mountain Sports in downtown Chico or at Sports, LTD.
