REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED due to snowshoe availability.

Come join us!  Enjoy the winter wonderland of Emigrant Springs State Park through a snowshoe/hike in the beautiful Blue Mountains of Eastern Oregon.  Your hike will be led by a park ranger who will share knowledge of the area. We will will begin around 10:00 A.M. depending on winter road conditions, with the hike being at a slow to moderate pace and lasting about an hour and a half. Elevation gain is minimal on easy to medium terrain.  

Please wear good warm hiking or snow boots and bring additional layers (any winter snow gear, like a hat, gloves, and warm drinks) to ensure your fun adventure!  Plan on hiking 1-2 miles on snow covered trails/paths around Emigrant Springs State Park.  Snowshoes will be provided if snow conditions are favorable.  If snow conditions aren't feasible, we will proceed with a normal hike.
