Whether you are a skier/snowboarder looking for a different kind of snow adventure or you have never been on snowshoes, snowshoeing is a great winter experience for everyone! “Snowshoes are a footwear for walking on top of the snow and is similar to winter hiking. Snowshoes work by distributing your weight over a larger area so that your foot does not sink completely into the snow, a quality called “flotation.” So, there is a feeling like you are floating on top of snow.” Enjoy a tailgating gourmet picnic where your guide will have warm beverages, folding chairs, blankets and your lunch by HI Inspired Chef & Guide, Josh Willette. A perfect finish to your day spent in Taos Backcountry!
