Hi Ladies,
Hope you are all doing well. I'm not sure if I'm coming out tomorrow so I thought I would touch base here. What time is everyone meeting to run?
For those who are interested in joining me on Monday with Telemarks Women's Snowshoe Group here is some info:
$5/person for trail pass
$10/person for snowshoe rentals
Group leaves at 9:30 so if you have to rent you should be there by 9ish.
Here are some tips I've learned along the way:
- most women don't use poles...unless they have balance problems ;)
- layer but don't wear too much. It has been colder lately but I would suggest wearing what you run in, you will get hot!
- hiking boots are best if you have them. Your feet will get hot. Boots with ability to flex feet are best.
- the trails are well travelled so don't worry about gaitors or snowpants
- Most gals pack water bottles
Anyone want to carpool? I have a van that seats 7 but my vertigo is a little worse so I can't drive. If things improve I'll drive or someone can drive my van.
The trail we should take is called Panorama. It would fit everyone's ability and is very scenic. It should take us 1-1.25 hours to do. Amy and I did it so she can let you know how she felt about it. The ladies usually hang out at the lodge and visit after, it's a really nice time. Feel free to pack tea bags or snacks for after. They have a kettle and microwave and they sell some snacks, hot chocolate and coffee.
Here is the link to the website if you want more info:

Hope to see you soon,
