Guided hikes and snowshoe trips geared toward those age 50 and older
|
||
| Three to four guided trips each week — now including Sunday! along various beautiful and
interesting trails in Central Oregon. Most trips include extensive information on the ecology, flora, fauna, history/archeology & geology of the area. Each is rated as easy, intermediate, or advanced according to length, elevation gain and terrain. Shoot us an email if you'd like to sign up for the Striders' email announcements. The snowshoeing trips start January 21; the trips mid-January through mid-February are now posted in the schedule section. Come Along to Experience Highlights Like These Snowshoeing!
• Snow waves carved by the wind along the trail to Todd Lake. • Brilliant glistening snow on Dutchman Flats Loop with Mt. Bachelor framed in a bluebird-blue sky. • Clouds of snow blowing in streamers from the summit of Mt. Bachelor. • Great views of Broken Top on a crystal-clear day. • Massive Mountain Hemlocks clothed in sparkling snow along the Dutchman Flats trails. • Tumalo Mountain shining in the distance from the Porcupine trail (a trail for snowshoers only!) in Swampy Lakes snow park. • Puffy "marshmallows" of snow covering the lava at Edison snowpark. We look forward to getting into the great outdoors with you!
