Snowshoe Adventure Hike

Saturday, January 9, 2016
10:00 AM

Go stomping through the snow at Minneopa State Park on a Snowshoe Adventure Hike on January 9th (Saturday) at 10:00 a.m.  We will head off from the Picnic Shelter at the Waterfalls Side into the woods to experience the winter landscape.  Be prepared for extreme terrain and conditions.

 

On this hike the Minneopa Area Naturalist will share some of the history of snowshoeing, tips on the different types of snowshoes, and fun places at Minneopa State Park to go snowshoeing.  We will be out for around an hour and half and cover up to 2 miles.  Please dress appropriately for cold temperatures.

 

This sport is one of the simplest and safest ways to get outdoors during the winter.  Meet at the picnic shelter on the Waterfalls side of Minneopa State Park.  Snowshoes can be rented at Minneopa State Park by calling 507-389-5464 or stopping off at the office.  If there isn’t enough snow it will become a hike.
