This is an out-n-back snowshoe (or microspike hike)  starting at the Tanglewood TH ( » 9 miles and 2900 elevation gain)  We will follow  the Tanglewood Trail continuing along Tanglewood Creek. The trail ascends toward the saddle between Rosalie Peak to the west and the Pegmatite Points to the east. The trail becomes steeper and more strenuous, particularly after leaving the trees.  We will head towards Pegmatite Points.
