In the morning we awoke to clear skies and bright snow-covered mountains outside our
window. We got a late start, arriving (after a short drive) at
Rock Creek to do a snowshoe hike around 11:30am.
After the hike, we tried to find some places for sledding at the Sno-Park. Unfortunately,
there weren't many good places. The places close to the parking lot aren't steep enough.
There are places further out, but in addition to being a bit far away they also required
hiking in relatively deep snow. So, we could hike up using our snowshoes, but it's
difficult to sled with snowshoes on. The kids enjoyed a few runs before we decided to
call it a day. I will have to say that the Donner Summit Sno-Park was much better for
sledding.
