Starting at the Peter Lougheed Info Center, we
will do a 10-14km tour on the easy and
intermediate trails around Peter Lougheed.
Route TBA, but we'll hopefully do a loop going
up Lynx trail and down Packers trail for lots
of hilly fun! Easier
options are
available for beginners and the hill-adverse!
Don't be afraid to sign up - we'll figure out
something fun for everyone.
After we ski, we'll have lunch at the Info Center. They have a microwave for our use if you want to bring something to nuke. We will be leaving at 9:00 sharp. If you need rentals, be sure to pick them up the night before. | |||||||
