While the snowshoe equipment and clothing may be different, the joy of stopping on route for a cup of warm tea must be the same as today. But whereas most people nowadays would carry a Thermos flask, this group had a campfire and kettle.

Depicted in this photograph are Mrs. W. Johnson, Edith Henby, Phyllis and Don Munday, Millie Dodds, and Neal Carter.

These men look dressed to impress on the slopes. Each has the Grouse Mountain Ski Club motif on their sweaters. The men were skiing on Dam Mountain north of Grouse Mountain in 1928, which would have meant quite a trek to get there. This makes their dapper appearance even more impressive.

The men are club members (left to right) Frank Owston, C.H. Mead, Ernie Wintemute and John Hope.
