Trip Report:

Every year we like to get in a snowshoeing outing to just enjoy the snow as a family at a leisurely pace.  Having done Tennessee Pass last year we opted to head back to familiar territory on Hoosier Pass.  It was around 20 degrees that morning at the pass and so we bundled up pretty warmly.
