*Snowshoe tours require a minimum of two people. Guests are required to wear warm winter gear. We suggest a winter jacket, snow pants, gloves, warm socks, and a toque or balaclava. In addition, snow goggles are great for sun glare and windier days. Our Rental Shop can fit you with a winter jacket and pants (optional) or you can purchase top brand winter gear from our Alpine Sports Boutique. A light backpack is also a good idea to carry your camera, water and snacks.
