What we have been up to lately:
The Watershed Education Program has been conducting snowshoe overnight trips for Norwood and the West End Middle Schools for four years. The program includes snow science and avalanche safety courses, team building exercises, poetry sessions, snowshoeing, skiing and sledding, as well as a HUGE amount of fun working, exploring, and having fun together. We have had the support of San Miguel County, the Zoline Family Foundation, and the contribution of the High Camp Hut by Cindy Farny.

Check out the winter fun!
