Introduction to Snowshoeing Fun-o-rama!

Origins Before man built snowshoes, nature provided examples. Several animals, most notably the snowshoe hare, had evolved over the years with oversized feet enabling them to move more quickly through deep snow.

Where did it come from? Snowshoeing is known to have been practiced in present-day central Asia about 6,000 years ago.  These ancestors to the Inuits and Native Americans, migrated from Asia to North America, they brought the snowshoes with them, which were modified slabs of wood.

Canada: Home of the Snowshoe In the past, snowshoes were essential tools for fur traders, trappers and anyone whose life or living depended on the ability to get around in areas of deep and frequent snowfall They remain necessary equipment for forest rangers
