Beginners Snowshoe Hike in the Catskills |
|||||
|
January 11, 2003 Catskill Beginner Snowshoeing: The BEST snow conditions were waiting for members Pat Wachter, Claire Weinberg, Lou Visconti, Georgia Dakis and guests Laura Hersh and Mark Obbie who joined leader Arlene Scholer. Besides all the snow underfoot, the frozen branches were laden with so much more snow that we worked hard going over, under and around branches that blocked the trail up Panther to Giant Ledge. Besides contending with trail conditions, these snowshoers also had fun learning various types of uphill and downhill footwork to help them navigate. The freedom of glissading through deep snow was the best! These snowshoe 'graduates' are now surely able to join any Catskill trip! |
