Let's snowshoe to Cerro Grande peak! The trail is about 4 miles round trip with a 1,300 ft elevation gain.  Sweeping views of the Valles Caldera from the top, at 10,200 ft .   

Departure time will be 9:30 am from the trailhead parking lot, located on State Route 4.

Please dress in layers and prepare for cold and windy weather. Bring snowshoes, trekking poles, sunglasses, sunscreen, water, and snacks.

Interested participants can join me afterward for a crosscountry ski run to the Frijoles Canyon overlook (2 miles round trip, 130 ft elevation gain). The trailhead is just across the road.

Trip size is limited to 5. Responsible physical distancing will be maintained at all times.
