Snowshoeing

Activity Description

snowshoe-icon If you looked up “feeling alive” in the dictionary, you might see a picture of person snowshoeing. It’s certainly a great way to make winter fun while getting fresh air and exercise. For you this activity can be an easy and relaxing tromp through beautiful, snow-laden forests just full of sparkle and wonder, or it can be a full-on snowshoe hike of a NH 3–4000-footer, it all depends on what you desire. The day, after all, is yours. In any case, we hope you’ll join us — to help us break trail.

Activity Offerings

With our knowledge of the area, we have a huge selection of snowshoeing option: frozen waterfall excursions, mountain views, secluded forests, pristine woodlands, summit attempts to various mountains large and small including our 4000-footers, even some sunrise/sunset summits (add $100). Our snowshoeing offerings begin with a half day, lasting 3-4 hours or so. We can double, triple, even quadruple this as needed, depending on your objective. A typical 3 to 4000-footer, for example, would be a very full day lasting 6-8 hours or so, while some 4000-footers, especially in winter, may be a lot longer so we do offer extended tours — snowshoe hikes for those who have lofty goals like winter Bonds traverses and more. Please include any special objectives or desires you may have, if applicable, in the comments box of our Booking Form.

What to Wear

To ensure everyone’s safety and comfort, we offer this important clothing info. When dressing for snowshoeing note the following:

  • Think layers. While a ski jacket, for example, may be warm and waterproof, if the insulation can’t be separated from the rain/snow protection layer, it really isn’t suitable. You will overheat if you need rain/snow protection while snowshoeing. Bring independent layers. Having our “Ready Pack” will solve the matter offering all you will need.
  • Never wear cotton, even at the underwear level. Synthetic materials, wool, and especially performance/wicking materials should be your clothing of choice. For snowshoeing, since cotton won’t dry and doesn’t insulate while wet, it can pose a hazard. You will want to wear the right type of sports or hiking clothing and you will want to bring extra.
  • Bring more than you think you need. Mountain weather can be very tricky and unpredictable. While it may be nice in town, the mountains can be very different. Being prepared can save your life.
  • For footwear, wear winter-rated hiking or mountaineering boots.
  • And speaking of winter, notably above treeline, you will want to prep for Denali. On some days. Seriously. Adding gear such as the following as a minimum is expected: Heavy-duty hooded parka, overmitts with liners, mountaineering boots, balaclava, and a set of goggles.
