Would you like to enjoy the quiet serenity of wintertime? Be there as sunrise and sunset light up the snowscapes in shades of yellow, orange and red? Watch a winter fox or rabbit at work or at play?
This winter camping course will focus on the practical aspects of safe winter tent camping. We will not be building elaborate snow caves, but you will learn how to make emergency snow shelters in 1-2 hours.
This course is intended for any winter sport enthusiast who would like to extend their skillset to include overnight camping, including snowshoers, skiers, scramblers and climbers. Some means of flotation is required, such as snowshoes or skis.
The course is comprised of an evening lecture and a snow camping overnight field trip.
