Redfeather Alpine Snowshoes - 30"

Helps with winter search and rescue training

A friend recommended Redfeather snowshoes to me. He told me that Sierra Trading Post was having a great sale on them. When I checked online and discovered not only a great price but that I received an additional 20% off for being a first time buyer I just had to order them. I live in Southern Michigan and we've had lots of snow this winter. I enjoy rabbit hunting and the only way to get around is with snowshoes. I go off trail in dense cover and the compact design is great! Plus they never come loose! I am 100% satisfied with my Redfeather Alpine snowshoes.

i added "stops" or "buttons" on the ends of the straps because otherwise the straps slip out of the buckles. otherwise exellent. i worked in the woods for many years for the u.s. forest service. i used snowshoes in my work, and these would do well for that use. i now use the "shoes" recreationally. they work well as a compromise between hi-flotation and light maneuverability. i weigh 250#, so great soft-snow flotation is NOT practical. the claws give great grip on ice and steep snow.

We used then in the Adirondacks-- they worked great.

I bought these late in the winter and only got to use them three time. But all three times I was very pleased with these snowshoes. They did kick up snow on the back of my leg. This was no superise since I did read by one other preson that this would happen. So where some snow pants. Great time .
