The hikes are held Saturdays and Sundays from January 3rd through April 5th. Meet the ranger at 1:30 p.m. outside the Kohm Yah-mah-nee Visitor Center in the southwest area. The walks are 1.5 to 2 hours in length. The route and type of walk is determined by snow conditions.

Participants must be at least eight years old and be able to do moderate physical exercise. Participation is first-come, first-served.

Fees: $1.00 donation for use of snowshoes.

Contact: Kohm Yah-mah-nee Visitor Center; 530-595-4480

Note that all the roads in Lassen Volcanic National Park are closed due to snow cover. You can, of course, drive to Kohm-Yah-mah-nee Visitor Center at the south entrance of the park from the junction of highways 36 and 89 as long as weather conditions (and the plowing schedule) allow.

Laurie, there’s no information on the park site about guided snowshoe walks for 2011. I suggest you check the Lassen Volcanic National Park website periodically, or call the park at 530-595-4480.
