Itinerary:

Snowshoe fun everyone. Beginners ARE ENCOURAGED to come out and try this easy and relaxing sport. If you can walk, you can snowshoe. . It's a great opportunity to just check out the sport before you tackle something harder, or out-of-town.

IMPORTANT NOTE: IF THE SNOW ALL MELTS AND CONDITIONS ARE NOT GOOD AND VERY SLUSHY/MUSHY, THIS EVENT WILL BE CANELLED.
I WILL SEND OUT A NOTIFICATION ON FRIDAY EVENING BY 6:00 pm AFTER I ASSESS THE CONDITIONS AT TERWILLIGER

There are trails winding through the entire park on the Southside of the North Saskatchewan River. Some trails in the park are wide and well used. Others are more narrow and uneven. Parts of the Snowshoe may require some elevation changes. It will allow us to scene some scenic views of the river valley.

To find me, I'll be driving a Blue Kia Sportage and wearing my yellow EOC baseball cap. I will be parked at the front of the parking lot near the bright red portapotty, so is should be easy to spot me.

Required Items to Bring:
Water Weather-appropriate clothing (toques, gloves, etc., and dress in synthetic layers) Snowshoes and boots are required Hiking poles are recommended, but not required and as this is an easy trail folks should be fine.
