WHAT TO WEAR
Clothing for snowshoeing is very similar to the clothing you would use to go on a hike. Snowshoes.com has more great info and resources.
- Hat & Gloves
- Waterproof hiking boots or trail runners
- Wool or Synthetic Socks (no cotton!)
- Dress in Layers
- Layer One: Non-cotton base layer (synthetic, silk, or wool long underwear)
- Layer Two: Insulating Layer (i.e. fleece, down, etc; while you’re snowshoeing you’ll probably stash this in a bag, but it will be nice to have standing outside!)
- Layer Three: Waterproof shell (to help protect from the weather)
- Warm Clothing and layers for non-snowshoeing times (checking in, awards ceremony, etc.
- Snowshoes
