The event at Steamboat Lake is the fourth of five races in our winter snowshoe series.

The course is hilly with lots of ups and downs, it can and will make you tired.

In the event of no snow, or too little to safely hold a snowshoe race, we simply will make it a trail-run, cross-country sort of race. In any event, we will have a race and we’ll have fun if it kills us. If the snow situation appears iffy at all, you should plan to bring a pair of sturdy shoes or boots to run in, just in case.
