Itinerary:

*This is a last minute post for Sunday afternoon snow shoe "snow day" adventure before the snow melts next week. Sign up below if you can make it!

We will make our way down to the Highlands Golf Course to make some snowshoe tracks now that we have a ton of snow that fell recently. There should be some nice areas for us to enjoy, and a few snow drifts to see if we can float through them :)

We are hopefully mostly wind sheltered in the valley and a little warmer in the afternoon from what is in the forecast. We will need to cover exposed skin though.

We will try to get around four fairways covered on our adventure with scenic views! *Moderate pace for hike comparison (not for beginners)
