Description

This is Hike #2, our Moonlight Hike:  We will snowshoe from the lookout to the Beaver Pond and fields, then return to our cars.  On winter hikes we may encounter bare ground, light snow, deep snow, or ice.  Please bring snowshoes and icers.  Participants should have some experience with snowshoeing.  Wear appropriate clothing for the weather plus water and a snack.  Headlamps may be worn, however, if it's a bright full moon, it is magical to hike without a light.  If the weather and road conditions preclude driving, the hike will be cancelled and hikers will be notified either the night before or early that morning.  In case of cancellation, we do not reschedule this hike so if you wish to earn the badge, you are asked to do a winter snowshoe on your own area trails to replace this hike and send in your hike log to beavervalleytrailactivities@gmail.com.  Please use the  "Click here to contact the hike leader" option in the hike listing if you have questions.
