Snowshoe to the Tennessee Pass Cookhouse
Snowshoe to the Tennessee Pass Cookhouse..Caption:(Friday 01/14/2011 Leadville)In a Yurt at 10,800 feet on a snowy Colorado mountain seems like an odd place to find a gourmet dinner. But with a little determination (and snowshoes) that's exactly what you'll get at the Tennessee Pass Cookhouse. The trail is clearly marked for the snowshoers that make their way through the forest to the Tennessee Pass Cookhouse. The trip back to the Tennessee Pass Nordic Center after dark may sound a little scary to the novice skier or snowshoer, but the Cooper Loop trail is clear shot and it's amazingly easy to follow a snow covered trail at night. Not convinced? The Nordic Center also outfits you with head lamps at no extra cost. ..Summary:Snowshoe to Colorado's Tennessee Pass Cookhouse...Photo by Julie Busch Branaman
