Snowshoeing is certainly gaining in its popularity among the residents at Lac des Roches. So many of the challenges such as slopes, wind, slush and weathered trails just don’t matter when trekking with snowshoes. Many of the trails made in the surrounding hills this winter are firm enough now to enjoy despite the softening snow conditions of spring. Hikers have also found that several tracks can even be enjoyed wearing only snow boots although gaiters are highly recommended to keep snow out of the tops of boots since the snow is still well over 3 feet deep. The ladies of Boultbee Road still go out on Sundays and extend an open invitation for other local ladies to join them for their weekly adventure.
