What is a pulka?
A pulka is a special cargo sled used while snowshoeing to transport gear. It is usually pulled behind you with a harness or rope, so you don’t have to carry heavy equipment on your back but instead "pull” it. The harness is typically attached around the waist, and depending on the terrain, a flexible pulling cord or rigid frame can be used to help control the pulka’s movement.
Important Information
- The tour starts on Saturday at 8:50 AM and ends around 4:00 PM on Sunday
