Snowshoe's and XC Skiing
For the last a couple weekend the wife and our daughters have been going out to our local winter recreation area. We have a couple sets of XC ski's and four pairs of shoe shoes. There is a local nonprofit that keeps the trails groomed nicely and they even have trails for fat tire mountain biking.

Anyone else enjoy snowshoeing or xc skiing?

Re: Snowshoe's and XC Skiing
Where'd you get that clip of glenn, Leech?  :scratch:  :rotflmao:

Anaway, I got snowshoes about 25 years ago to read the gas meter ~ 1/4 mile down in the field. Used them many winters for exercise too, going up and down the monster snowbanks on the 1/4 lines. Open country so I got Alaska type wooden snowshoes. They could use a coat of marine varnish and the lace tightener on the one binding needs replacement. They've held up well tho and are a blast to use especially when cabin fever sets in. The nap after I get back is even better!  :happy1:

All kidding aside I used to use XC-Skis and Snowshoes for bunny hunting.  Fun and the only way you could get back in the wood.   :happy1:
