The Huron
snowshoe model is the most known shape from all snowshoes. It takes its
origin from the Nation Huronne from Canada. It is mostly used for
hunting, trapping, bird watching and long-distance adventures in open
forests and fields. It was also the preferred model used by the French
settler who established the first colony in 1604, the adventure
enthusiasts and the trappers for winter hiking.
Very
quiet and easy to maneuver, its geometry provides great flotation in
soft snow and its long tail is designed to keep the snowshoe in the
walking movement as needed.
- Frame made of Appalachian white ash and lacing made of cow raw hide.
- High quality varnish to keep the raw hide and the frame in good condition.
- Harness sold separately.
Note: It
is recommended to apply varnish once a year at the end of the season to
prevent the wood frame and raw hide to absorb moisture and water. That
will extend the life of your natural snowshoe. We recommend using a wood
boat varnish.
