Packs & Bags
» Backpack Selection
Choosing the right pack depends on what
you are doing.
One of the virtues of snowshoeing is the
ability to snowshoe up a slope you plan
on skiing down.
Just pack your skis in a backpack and
strap on your snowshoes. |

Steps:
1. Check for
straps on both sides of the pack. Most medium and large packs have two straps on
each side to carry additional gear.
2. Consider weight. Trudging through snow is different than hiking through the woods.
3. Consider Space. If your spending a day riding the back country you wont need as big a pack as if you are snow camping.
4. Choose a pack that fits your size.
