Snowshoes

What is a Snowshoe?


A snowshoe is an item of footwear that has been adapted for people to walk on snow. They distribute weight so that the walker does not sink into soft snow, and enable people to travel through landscapes that are usually impossible with only ordinary footwear. Snowshoes of the twenty-first century are most often made of lightweight metal and other manmade materials.
