Will it be flat? Steep and icy? Will you be sticking to groomed trails or going off-trail?<\/li>\r\n \t<li>What will your fully loaded weight be? Will you be taking a fairly packed bag for an overnight winter camping trip, or running in the woods with only a few layers?<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Which activity will you be taking up? Choosing one of the four activities below could determine whether or not you require some additional features on your snowshoes, such as added traction or extended surface area.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>"},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","content_anchor":true,"anchor_link_text":"Running and racing","text_content":"<h2>Running and racing<\/h2>\r\n<img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14195\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Running-snowshoe.jpg\" alt=\"running snowshoes\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2250\" \/>Snowshoe running is a fantastic option for runners hoping to keep up with the sport and their training program. All the benefits of a high intensity cardio sport, while also being surrounded by a magical snow-covered winter wonderland; who could ask for anything more? A few runners may even want to take part in official races, as some places hold organized snowshoe racing events. Talk about dedication to the sport!\r\n\r\nIf this sounds like an exciting way to stretch out your running season, all you need is a small, lightweight pair of running snowshoes. These should be quite narrow, mostly so you don\u2019t kick yourself in the shins as you run! You shouldn\u2019t need extra traction features as most runners will stick to groomed trails, flat or gently rolling terrain. \u00c9ric also mentions: \u201cLook for bindings that will accommodate your running shoes so you can keep running with your trusted pair of shoes. You could even take them in-store with you to make sure they fit!\u201d The brand <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/garneau\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Garneau<\/a> has some great snowshoe options for winter runners."},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","content_anchor":true,"anchor_link_text":"Walking and hiking","text_content":"<h2>Walking and hiking<\/h2>\r\n<img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14185\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Hiking-snowshoe.jpg\" alt=\"hiking snowshoe\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2250\" \/>Most snowshoers will start with hiking, which can be done either on a flat, well-groomed trail or, if you are hoping for a bit more intensity, on steeper terrain or off-trail in fresh snow. Those who have broken a new trail before will know how quickly it can get your blood pumping! Whatever you are looking for, whether it is a calm, quiet walk in the woods or an exciting uphill climb with amazing summit views, grabbing your snowshoes is the way to go. And the fun part? You can decide to step off the beaten track anytime you want and go explore. If you intend to do so, bring poles with wide enough snow baskets to make the hike easier.\r\n\r\nWhen it comes to choosing the right hiking snowshoes, you have lots of options available. For those sticking to flat or gently rolling terrain, most entry-level snowshoes will do the trick. Look at the brand <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/outdoor-gear\/winter-sports\/snowshoes#\/filter:manufacturer:SAIL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SAIL<\/a> for some great models. If you\u2019d like to gain a bit more comfort or choose a binding system that makes it easier to get in and out of your snowshoes, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/gv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GV<\/a> is also a good brand to look at.\r\n\r\nHikers planning to take on steeper climbs or icy terrain should look for models with more aggressive traction features. You may want to consider a heel lift as well so that your heels are better supported on longer ascent, and your calves get a break.\r\n\r\nFor additional tips on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/blog\/snowshoe-cure-for-post-holing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">how to improve your snowshoeing technique, read the article<\/a>."},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","content_anchor":true,"anchor_link_text":"Backcountry hiking","text_content":"<h2>Backcountry hiking<\/h2>\r\n<img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14187\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Backcountry-hiking.jpg\" alt=\"backcountry hiking\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2250\" \/>Longer expeditions in the winter may require a bit of logistics planning, but what could be more rewarding than reaching a place you couldn\u2019t access by any other means and realizing you\u2019re the first person to leave your tracks in the fresh snow? Many snowshoeing enthusiasts also combine touring with winter camping in order to go further and enjoy the sport for longer. If you are one of them, make sure you bring a map and compass with you and know how to use them. Also check the total weight of your pack so that you can select a pair of snowshoes with a wide enough surface area to give you good flotation, even when fully loaded.\r\n\r\nYou\u2019ll need to be equipped to face pretty much any terrain, from icy stretches to steep or long ascents in deep snow or fresh powder. Look for snowshoes with more aggressive traction features, such as additional teeth along the frame, and a heel lift to support your heel on long climbs.
