SSSS - Snow Shoe for Super Seniors
Invalid Image LinkInvalid Image Link
Royal Gorge, near Donner Summit, is the largest Cross Country Ski area in North America. They also offer snow shoe trails. In a celebration of age discrimination the trail pass for those over 75 is FREE!. So to participate you must be over 75. We will provide snow shoes from our extensive collection. We will buy you lunch at the Summit Lodge. This is not fine dining but healthier food than the traditional downhill lodge. Royal Gorge is an hour from Grass Valley. The hike starts at 10:00 am. We assume some level of fitness but will choose trails appropriate to all participants. Since we demand good weather the date may be changed. 4 4 .0002E7 20 3/5/20 10:00 AM
