Intermediate Snowshoe – Butler Gulch

This is a snowshoe for RMOTHG. We will snowshoe up Butler Gulch until reaching tree line then proceed cross country to the mine.

  • Moderate
  • Mileage: 5.5 mi
  • Elevation Gain: 1,600 ft
  • High Point Elevation: 11,984 ft
  • Pace: 1.6 mph

We will meet at the Wooly Mammoth Park-N-Ride Section MM at 7:20 for a 7:30 prompt departure. This should allow enough time to organize carpools. Total R/T milage is 80 X .30 = $24 divided evenly between everyone in the car including driver.  Mask are up to the drivers discretion.  

Pace will be governed by the group.  There are a couple of spots in the first mile and a half that are a little steep and will dictate pace of the group.  Remember you will be climbing to 12,000 feet
