Well, you could join the <a href=\"http:\/\/lomaprieta.sierraclub.org\/\">Loma Prieta Chapter of the Sierra Club,<\/a> or you could do what I&#8217;ve done: sign up for one of his classes.   Steve&#8217;s the co-leader of a snow-camping course being taught early in 2007.  Among the details:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\nParticipants must be experienced summer backpackers as this course will give you winter information and tips but doesn&#8217;t teach basic backpacking. Three evening classes, held in the Stanford area, on Thurs. 1\/18, Tues. 1\/23 and Thurs. 1\/25. One weekend field trip on Feb. 3-4, 2007. Limited to 40 participants for the evening sessions, and 25 participants on the outing.<br \/>\n<P><br \/>\n$40 cost includes books, instruction, and some common equipment used on field trip. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The rest of the details <a href=\"http:\/\/lomaprieta.sierraclub.org\/snow_camping_seminar.html\">are here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><P>I missed the classroom part last year and probably will have to miss it again this year (lousy stinking need for a paycheck, alas), but I did make it out in the deep snow last winter with Steve.
