Avalanche Snowshoe Kit
Posted by Crescent Moon on Feb 5th 2021
An avalanche is something anyone who is snowshoeing in the backcountry or the mountains needs to be acutely aware of. Before you head out on a snowshoeing adventure, you need to make sure you have all of the essential equipment packed and ready to go and make sure you understand avalanche safety basics. We have decided to take the guesswork out of it and created an avalanche snowshoe bundle to order precisely what you need for you to go snowshoeing in avalanche country.
