Picking Your Snowshoe
Size
Roughly match snowshoe size to your body weight plus the
weight of any pack.
As a rule, smaller shoes are easier to walk on. If
close to a size break, choose larger shoes if you have long legs, wear a hefty
pack, regularly break trail or have light, fluffy snow.
Choose smaller
shoes for shorter legs, denser snow or packed trails (even if new snow covers
the old tracks).
