内容简介

Avid snowshoer Larry Olmsted enumerates the many reasons for snowshoeing's meteoric rise in this indispensable guide. Much of the growth comes from new materials and designs that make these ancient contraptions up-to-date and in demand: quick-entry high-performance bindings make them easier and more enjoyable to use than ever. Thanks to such improvements, joggers and runners have found a whole new season of fitness. Scores of such enthusiasts are hitting groomed cross-country ski and snowmobile trails across the snowbelt on scaled-down versions of traditional snowshoes. No new use or technique is left untreated in this, the first guide to snowshoeing since snowshoeing has come of age.
