WINTER TRIPS & EVENTS
2014/2015 CALENDAR
Trips are shown in boxes. Other events are just named. Only weekend dates are shown on the vertical time axis. Events shown side by side happen at the same time.
NOTES:
* FWSA trips tend to be more expensive than our club trips.
* FWSA trips tend to be always on the same dates, but different destinations.
* Mt. High trips tend to be on different dates and different destinations each year.
Exceptions: The Powder Mt. (Utah) trip and the Lake Tahoe trip are repeating every year. Same destination, same time. (But, Powder Mt. was skipped this past winter.)
