As you snowshoe among the towering trees, you’ll get to experience a serene, welcoming setting, and see the outcome of the recently completed restoration project that brought ecological balance back to the grove. Learn about the ecology of the grove and how the Sierra Nevada snowpack has helped these giants thrive for thousands of years. Feel the quiet that descends on the forest in winter, look for signs of wildlife that stay active year-round, and hear the stories behind some of the grove’s most famous trees, such as the Grizzly Giant.

  • A full-day guided snowshoe adventure (Saturday, February 9, starting at 9 am and lasting about six hours).
