Pack 19 Snowshoe adventure! (weather backup)
Details: Join Cub Scout Pack 19 for a backcountry snowshoe hike just outside Mt. Baker Ski Area. Never been snowshoeing before? No problem! This is an all ability level, nobody gets left behind event for girls and boys! Don’t have snowshoes? Still no problem! We have the skinny on where to rent them for kids ($8) and adults ($18). This event is part of Pack 19’s “normal friend activities” series where we encourage cubs to invite their non-scouting friends and we welcome non-scouting families to join us in an outdoor adventure. If all goes well, we’ll learn a little about backcountry snow travel, but focus on having fun. Bring a sled, shovel, or your favorite snow play equipment for sledding, snow cave building, and general snow fun before, during, or after the snowshoe hike. If weather looks dangerous we will have a weather delay date of 2/24. Note that snow is not bad weather – it is beautiful! And there is no such thing as bad weather, just a bad choice of clothing. But…if we are looking at sleet or temperatures dangerously cold, we’ll send out a cancellation and reschedule to 2/24. NOTE: If anyone loves backcountry snow travel, please contact event lead Jason Vogel, he could use an assistant event lead (let’s grab a beer to discuss!).
