The first time I went snowshoeing, I had visions of dancing on top of the four feet of snow we had in Colorado. Instead, I sank pretty good up to my waist and wondered why I was doing such an activity. Obviously to my surprise, I found that I was simply on the wrong pair of snowshoes. For my weight, I apparently needed something much bigger, especially in the softer snow. This is where the Tubbs Mountaineer snowshoes would have come in handy. Offered in a 25, 30, or 36 size, I would have found the flotation and fun that I was looking for. Oh well, lesson learned. In addition to the generous sizing, the Mountaineer snowshoes also have Tubbs’ patented Anaconda toe crampon and a Python heel crampon. Those of us who fear snakes shouldn’t be scared of the grip that these shoes provide, there’s a lot to like about maintaining your posture no matter how steep the terrain may be. Built with Tubbs’ Pro-Step Frame, the lightweight aluminum allows the shoer to head out and go longer and farther than ever before. The frame is the backbone of the whole setup, so it’d better be a good one. Snowshoers who are looking for the latest and greatest in adventure snowshoe technology needn’t look farther than the Tubbs Mountaineer snowshoes. They have a fantastic combination of performance and comfort that will go a long way for today’s modern snowshoe enthusiast.
