If you have only been backpacking during the summer, you’ve been
missing out on half the fun! Winter camping allows you to explore the
mountains at a time of year when the bugs are gone, and the crowds are
gone, too!
Learn the skills of snowshoeing and the tricks of staying
safe and warm in winter conditions. Join us on a spectacular ride
up the Palm
Springs
Tram for a weekend of backpacking and winter camping up in the San
Jacinto wilderness!
