For most of my life hiking in the winter just did not sound appealing. The cold, the wind, and the ice don t sound inviting. Every once in a while my family would take a snowshoeing trip in Rocky Mountain National Park. But, taking an hour out of a normal day for a winter stroll wasn t a common thought.
But now I say, don t knock it till you try it.
Hiking is a favorite summer hobby of Coloradans and is a free source of exercise and stress relief. With just a few tweaks to your preparations, you can take this activity into winter.
