The Snowshoe Events
The Snowshoe events are designed for everyone. If you can walk 5-miles you will finish.  There will be great competition for the endorphin junkies and great scenery and camaraderie for those looking for a little outdoor adventure. The two events make up the largest snowshoe race in the Northwest. In 2013 more than 200 are expected to participate.

White River 8K
The White River 8K will begin at the White River West Sno Park. The course is an adventure through the White River Canyon. This is the oldest snowshoe event in the northwest. The route will leave the snow park and travel to the end of the canyon and return. The course is a narrow loop. -- SOME COURSE CHANGES WILL be made if weather dictates. Course updates will be posted here. Some of the course will be designed to include/accomodate snow conditions. It will be 8K.
White River 4K
