My first ever snowshoe race! Slightly less than 5k, but with stunning vistas and some of the steepest terrain I've ever experienced. Entry includes gondola ride to Grouse Mountain (which is generally quite pricey). This year, the first 50 entrants got free socks - but I signed up too late. Unique experience for anyone visiting Vancouver in February!
