Get Fit Great Falls, in coordination with the U.S. Forest Service, is proud to bring back Winter Trails Day 2024 on Saturday, February 3rd at the Silver Crest Winter Recreation Area. This free event sponsored by Scheels and Bighorn Outdoor Specialists offers guided hikes, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing. All snowshoes are provided free thanks to the US Forest Service, Wild Montana, and Montana Discovery Foundation. No matter your age or experience, there is a hike for everyone.

Space for the snowshoe hikes is limited and all participants must register in advance online at getfithikes.eventbrite.com. Registration opens on Wednesday, Jan. 17th. Additionally, Big Horn Outdoor Specialists will be offering a guided cross-country ski tour at 10:30 AM on Saturday, February 3rd for a limited number of registrants. Reservations for this tour must be made separately at Bighorn Outdoor Specialists (406-453-2841) who will lend their skis free of charge. Individuals must visit the shop to be sized for boots and skis. Bighorn will have their ski equipment available the rest of the day for those who want to try cross country skiing after their snowshoe hike.

All participants must be dressed warmly with layers and bring their own food and drink for the day. Carrying a small day pack on the trail is highly recommended. A face covering is recommended when fitting snowshoes and skis and in areas where social distancing is not possible.
