Hiking – Matthews/Winters Park

This trip is for RMOTHG members only. A second trip date to accommodate wait listers. Enjoy this short but intense high ridge-top walk with spectacular views. Because of possible snow and ice, at least carrying our microspikes are a must. Not a good trail for snowshoes due to narrowness of the trail and frequent small rock steps and scrambles.
