Mesa Verde National Park will host a winter festival from 6 to 9 p.m. Feb. 28. Explore Mesa Verde’s Morefield Campground and the Meadow Bliss and Cottontail Loop trails in the moonlight by snowshoe or skis. The park will also host night sky viewing, conditions permitting, and offer hot chocolate near the Morefield Campground Store.
The event is free. Bring a headlamp and dress warmly.
Morefield Campground is 4 miles past the park’s entrance station, and parking is available at the Morefield Village lot.
A limited number of adult and child snowshoes will be available for checkout during the event.
Activities are subject to cancellation because of weather or road conditions. If snowfall is inadequate, participants may hike the trails and enjoy the evening.
