Got it! So Bob R just forgot the "C", right?

BTW, many sporting goods stores rent snowshoes for incredibly cheap daily prices. I used hiking poles with winter baskets (+-$4)and leather hiking boots waterproofed with silicone spray + regular hiking pants sprayed with silicone, too(you do not fall that often, really, in fact I never fell) I went for the first time this last year (on a
warm & sunny day after a storm) and found snowshoing to be very enjoyable, abeit strenuous if one is carrying
any amount of weight up any sort of incline.
