Details

This will be a fun Sunday snowshow trip up to Chasm Lake below Longs Peak. We'll be meeting Sunday morning at the Longs Peak Ranger Station parking lot at 8:00 am and departing by 8:30 am.



We'll shoot for leaving the trailhead around 8:30 am. Plan on staying together as a group and enjoying a moderate snowshoe trek up East Longs Peak trail to Chasm Junction. From here, conditions permitting we'll proceed past Peacock pool to Chasm Lake. Pack a lunch, snacks, and a hot drink. Once we arrive at the lake we'll hang out if wind permits and have some time for exploring and taking in the scenery.
