These snowshoes have their roots with the Huron people who lived along the Saint Lawrance river in southern Canada and the North eastern united states. Similar in general shape and function to the Alaskan snowshoe, the Huron's upturned toe and large surface area excel at covering distances over open trail through any depth of snow.

Description & Materials

NTCo's hand-made, traditional wooden snowshoe line is one of our newest. Processed, steam-bent, laced dipped all by hand.

Similar in general shape and function to the Alaskan snowshoe, the Huron's upturned toe and large surface area excel at covering distances over open trail through any depth of snow. These snowshoes have their roots with the Huron people who lived along the Saint Lawrence river in southern Canada and the north eastern United States. They were further developed by French trappers, moving northward to explore and search for wealth. They are an excellent snowshoe for larger people, for carrying large packs, and for anybody looking to explore different traditional styles.  

Materials: Ash, Nylon Lacing

 

Snowshoe Sizing

Picking Your Snowshoe Size   Roughly match snowshoe size to your body weight plus the weight of any pack. As a rule, smaller shoes are easier to walk on. If close to a size break, choose larger shoes if you have long legs, wear a hefty pack, regularly break trail or have light, fluffy snow. Choose smaller shoes for shorter legs, denser snow or packed trails (even if new snow covers the old tracks).
