Snowshoeing

Snowshoeing is the hottest cold weather sport around. Maybe it's because it's easy: if you can walk, you can snow shoe. It's also inexpensive: All you need is cold weather clothing, a pair of snowshoes, and some ski poles. But maybe the coolest thing about this hot sport is that it enables you to go virtually anywhere in the backcountry: off trails, up slopes, down hills, and everywhere in between. It's also great exercise and can be enjoyed by people of all ages and fitness levels.
