Snow conditions permitting, we'll plan to snowshoe about 5.5 miles from St. Elmo towards Hancock Pass.  Depending on time and the group's desires, we can try to summit the pass or simply head back to St. Elmo.

Note that this trip is more than easy rating because of distance and elevation gain.

We will meet at the Safeway in Old Colorado City in time to leave by 7:30 a.m.

The address is:  3275 W Colorado Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80904
