" The Lightweight Backpacker WINTER HIKING There's probably a few good reasons to hang up the hiking boots during the WinterI just can't think of one ! Many of the trails that we travel in Spring, Summer, and Fall are also available during the Winter. Many public parks, cities, and towns maintain trail systems which remain accessible for Winter hiking and even snowshoeing. Some have special rules that apply to Winter use so check with them for specifics. If nothing else, it's a great way to keep those hiking muscles active. Many lowland backcountry trails are also available year-round, albeit muddy. Trails in the mountains, (although buried in deep snow) are also traversable (with the help of some special gear). With some additional education, training, and gear, there's no reason we can't be just as actively hiking in the Winter as in the other three seasons. Check it out ! Find out what's available in your area. You might be surprised at the possibilities. For the higher elevations, why not try snowshoeing ?

2. Superior Describes three hikes on the Superior Hiking Trail. Includes pictures, links to maps, and lodging information. http://www.geocities.com/orchard_112/superior.html

Snowshoeing the Superior Hiking Trail When I started planning our snowshoeing trip I spent a lot of time trying to find information about some hikes on the internet. I was somewhat unlucky and only found good information from the Superior Hiking Trail Association Website. Hopefully, my recap of my trip can help you plan yours. Hike 1 - Gooseberry Falls State Park We did this hike the first day, because I thought it would be nice to see the falls and it would be a nice start to a three day trip. Our goal was to follow the snowshoe path up the south side of the river to the fifth falls and then cross the river and come back down on the north side of the river. Unfortunately the path had such little snow cover we decided almost immediately to hike on Gooseberry River. The second part of our hike we decided to take off our snowshoes and follow the snowshoe loop on the south side of Hwy 61. This is a beautiful hike to a cliff that overlooks Lake Superior. Total hiking time for both hikes: 4 Hours Overall rating: B Path is much too beaten down for snowshoeing. If you accept that, or hike on the river, then it's a beautiful hike. The visitors center at Gooseberry falls is brand new and worth visiting!

7. Bear Crossing Cross Country Skiing, Snowshoeing Trails Groomed cross country skiing, snowshoeing and hiking trails through 276 acres in northern Wisconsin near the Chequamegon National Forest. http://bearcrossing.sws-wis.com/ski/

Bear Crossing Ski Trails - Medford, Wisconsin Introduction Registration Directions to Bear Crossing Wooden Creations Bear Crossing Ski Trails offers 4 miles, (6.5 kilometers), of groomed cross country skiing, and snowshoeing trails through 276 acres of beautiful deep wooded forest. The property borders the Chequamegon National Forest, which provides many other recreational activities. Unique to Bear Crossing Ski Trails is the short loop trail layout design, patterned after old logging trails. Each ski loop has a different terrain and forest type providing an ideal experience for all ages and skill levels. The flat trails that meander through the aspen stands and tag alder swamps are excellent for first time skiers or those who just prefer a leisurely ski. The delightful rolling hills of the pine, balsam, and mixed hardwood stands provide a greater challenge for those looking for a faster adventure. The Bear Crossing ski trails are great for all ages, young families, experienced skiers, and the elderly, due to the connecting nature of the trails. Skiers are able to match their skills, desires, and distance by determining the trails taken - ensuring an enjoyable outing for all. The majority of the trails intertwine through heavily wooded areas providing excellent opportunities to enjoy the wildlife. The abundant wildlife activity is apparent in the snow trails of the white tail deer, snowshoe hares, ruffed grouse as they make their way though the woods and across the trails. Chickadees, nuthatches, and bluejays fill the air with their sounds and an occasional porcupine can be seen in the treetops.

8. Snowshoes & Snowshoeing Page A complete and concise guide to snowshoes and snowshoeing by Adirondack guideand snowshoeing workshop presenter Carl Heilman II. Snowshoes snowshoeing. http://www.carlheilman.com/snowshoe.html

Photo Galleries Virtual Panoramas Photography Workshops Photoshop Workshops ... Contact Us Carl Heilman has been involved in the sport of snowshoeing ever since making his first pair of snowshoes in the early 1970's. He has written numerous articles on the subject and has also published a booklet on making snowshoes (unnavailable until fall 2003). He's been leading beginner's and advanced snowshoeing workshops for the Adirondack Mtn. Club and the Appalachian Mtn. Club since the mid 1980's and has also done programs and workshops for many other organizations and schools throughout the northeast. He has also led snowshoe clinics for the major outdoor industry trade show held each winter in Salt Lake City. Carl handcrafted his 'high-tech' traditional snowshoes until 1997, and has also done some snowshoe design consulting work with major manufacturers. especially His snowshoes have been used all over the world, and some of his ideas for snowshoe design have been incorporated into commercial designs. While he enjoys passing along his expertise on snowshoeing and winter travel, he especially enjoys seeing folks turn-on to the sport after using snowshoes for the first time! The following pages are a result of his trying to help demystify the sport of snowshoeing and choosing snowshoes. Each facet of snowshoes and snowshoeing has been broken down into it's simplest components. Hopefully this will help provide a better understanding of snowshoes so folks can more easily choose snowshoes that are best suited for them, and help them take those first steps in the snow with confidence!
