Snow Camp

You get up really early for this one, drive
to Palm Springs, then take a tram car almost 6000 feet up to the base of San
Jacinto. From there we'll all hike in a couple miles, make camp, and try to
survive the night (heh, heh, just kidding, no really). You'll need 4 coffee can
lids to make snow stakes to keep your tent earth-bound, so start collecting them
now! This trip can be variable. You could be hiking in your shorts, or be moving
through a snow storm. At this point, you'll be ready for anything.
