Snow Moon Snowshoe – February 24th

CRAWFORD NOTCH NH – The second full moon of 2024 — also known as the Snow Moon — will appear on Saturday, February 24, 2024 and we’ve decided to lead a moonlight snowshoe hike for this event. This moon is named the “Snow Moon” because in February it is usually colder across the Northern Hemisphere with snowfall in many countries. This also goes back to some Native American tribes who reportedly gave it this name due to the scarcity of food and difficult hunting conditions during this time of year.

The Details

  • What it is: Nighttime Full Moon Snowshoe Hike
  • When it is: Saturday, February 24th, 2024
  • Its times: 5:30PM – 9:00PM (approx)*
  • Where it is: Probably Mt Willard or Mt Avalon
  • And the cost: $39 (add-to your party for $29 ea.)
  • What’s included: Snowshoes or spikes, poles, and headlamp*
  • And: Hot tea or hot chocolate.
  • Meeting place: Meet at the “Crawford Depot“
