Trying to figure out where I can go snowshoeing friday? I have my brother in law in town and we want to get the snowshoes out but have no idea where there is enough snow to go do some hiking? I am willing to drive to get to a good trail so let me know! Thanks
How far of a hike do you want? Where are you at and how far do you want to drive to the trail head? Do you want to summit a mountain? There is plenty of snow once you get to about 8,000 feet.
In layton, no need to summit just want to be able to get out for a 2-3 hours, not die in an avalance but be able to have a nice hike.
The red pine trail is good! It'd especially fun if you bring a plastic sled with you for the ride back down. Very fun. If I remember correctly, tmarten has a video of sledding back down if you search the forums. Ive done it and it's fun.
I would recommend Donut Falls but I'm not sure of the snow coverage currently...
Oh, there are lots of places outside of snowbasin to snowshoe around. Drive up there and take a look around.
that is my normal area aro und snowbasin, but with the temps and the lack luster snowfall I wont need my snowshoes around there? Donut falls sounds good, I wll look for that video, sounds fun!
Check this out for ideas.

yeah it sure would, midwest is getting dumped on while we are in the 50's crazy!
ended up going to the coldwater canyon overlook, bushwacked a bit and made for a great day, put the snowshoes on at the base of the trail and it was coooold up top. With the recent snow I am thinking of going back up this friday.
i'd go to london.
london huh
Looks like they changed their URL:Quote:
