Basic Snowshoe – Prospector Bouldering Trail

This easy hike leads to a high point that is perfect to enjoy moonlight as we approach the final full moon of 2026, the "Cold Moon". Leader will advise footwear needed based on conditions at the time of the trip (snowshoes or traction). Bring ten essentials for a winter day hike at night. Headlamp, traction, poles suggested. A snack, thermos, and something to sit on if you would like to dally in the moonlight at the top. 

"The final full moon of the year invites reflection and gratitude. Slow down, get cozy, and close out 2026 with intention."
