Through April and May, you can still enjoy winter - even if the tulips are blooming where you are! The higher elevations of the Rockies maintain their snow cover much longer than the rest of the continent, so you can stay and play in the winter, long after the spring equinox marks the change of season.

Want to enjoy pristine snow in the meadows, on the slopes and through the forest? Snowshoeing provides tons of powder fun. It is super easy (if you can walk, you can snowshoe!) and it's a wonderful family activity for all ages. Test your knowledge of animal tracks in the snow (we'll even give you the answers) and learn a little about - who - or what - passed by the trail.

If you've never tried backcountry powder snowshoeing before, this is the perfect introduction to the sport. Just be prepared: it can be addictive!
