Im soo happy i live where i dont need snow shoes, sure we get snow, but it usually doesnt last long enough to need snow shoes, and its more likely going to be three or four inches. Sure, i have seen up to two feet, but thats about a once in 40 year event...thank goodness!!!.... for them that like or don't mind snow.... good deal.... but not me...
Its a big wide world out there full of lots of different weather, people adapt and roll on.
Interesting to hear the different situations .

Gene, those look just like mine. Did you get leather or synthetic bindings? I can't tell from the photo. Congratulations, I'm sure you will like them.
Good call on the ice cleats too.

Very nice and, oh yeah, you will need those ice cleats. We can get a freeze-thaw cycle anytime during the winter, now.
