If you prefer snowshoeing as your mode of transportation — just as the pioneers that explored these valleys so long before us — your guide will take you off the beaten path for a dose of backcountry beauty through a snowshoe hike. It’s an equally serene and invigorating experience on some of the best snowshoe trails in Colorado — typical of Three Forks.

HOW TO PREPARE
Ski pants, and layers to shed - this is a high output sport, plan to warm up quickly even on the coldest days
Just strap the snowshoes on, grab poles if you want, and the adventure is yours to enjoy. Snowshoeing is ideal for all ages and is an excellent low impact exercise that burns more calories than walking or even slow running.
The most optimal form of winter hiking, snowshoeing works the whole body, especially the legs and glutes. Add poles and you get a great upper body workout too. You can enjoy snowshoeing alone with nature or in good company. Improve your balance, shake off stress and tension.
Walk your way to better health in the icy wilds of Colorado.
