Prerequisites
At least one prior winter hike

Join us for an awesome, moderate hike in the Whites to scenic Mt. Whiteface! This 7 mile trail features 2,831 feet of elevation and beautiful views from the many open ledges of Blueberry ledge trail. This will be an educational hike on crampon use - if you haven't used them yet and want to try, this will be your chance!

Participants should have participated in at least one other prior winter hike. Both snowshoes and crampons will be required (the trail won't require crampons, but we'll be practicing how to use them). The company will be awesome, and we will ensure the awesomeness of your company by providing chocolate-covered espresso beans ;-)
