Where:
There are many great places to try out your new Redfeather shoes. City, State and National parks are a good way to get the hang of it - basically anywhere you have snow! Once you feel comfortable, you might like to try out a new hiking trail or perhaps you want to go to one of the many areas devoted solely to snowshoeing. These areas are great because the trails are often marked out according to their difficulty. There are also festivals and events at many locations throughout the winter, often times at your local ski area. For more detailed information regarding snowshoe events click on Events and Races.

When:
Any time you want (if there are at least 4 inches snow on the ground)! Snowshoeing is a great activity by itself or combined with other outdoor pursuits like winter camping, backcountry snowboarding and skiing, sledding, or running. When you have a pair of snowshoes, there are no more excuses for not getting out and enjoying winter.
