Description

Hi everyone!

its a winter wonderland out there! planning a snowshoe out to Mt. Zoa this Saturday in coquihalla ( I Have never been). This will be a relatively challenging snowshoe at 700 m elevation and 8 ish km roundtrip ( will likely be around 5 hours in and out) with very short breaks.

depending on weather we may change snowshoe area  ( mt zupjok or similar) – most will land in the difficult range, fitness should be capable of variable steepness and moderately deep snow.
