Learn how to make Emergency Snowshoes during this multi-day class. Craft your own pair of highly functional snowshoes. Snowshoes, also called Ski Shoes, allow you to hike and maneuver in snow country with success. Without snowshoes or skis to keep you on top of deep snow, your body will soon tire and suffer exhaustion succumbing to exposure and cold.
Emergency Snowshoes
The Emergency Ski Shoe training and its elements, are part of our regularly scheduled February Winter Camp.
