Community and adventure are the name of the game. Despite the abysmal snowpack, we’re making figurative lemonade (hot chocolate still included!). With very little snow on the trail, we’re turning this into an easy afternoon hike along a section of the Metolius-Windigo Trail, followed by a bonfire and hot chocolate.
Arrive at the trailhead by 12:30 pm; hike departs at 12:45 pm.
