Itinerary:

Here's a place that still has excellent snow conditions for snowshoeing! As an added bonus, there is a nice skating rink there too. We will snowshoe and/or skate for an hour or more, then meet in the hut to share some snacks. This will be a good event for those new to snowshoeing.

There are no rental facilities, but snowshoes can be rented at Totem or MEC. Skates, well you probably have to own a pair of those.

Please note that your coordinator is new to Edmonton and to EOC, and has never been to this location before. Patience is required, and any assistance is appreciated! :)
