Around here most of the pretty state park trails are groomed for skiing in the winter, so with lots of places to ski and not a whole lot of trails open to snowshoeing, I never did get myself some snowshoes until now. Taking advantage of a 30% off sale running at the moment, I got a pair of Atlas 925 snowshoes.
Today is sunny and very warm at over +10°C, so this will probably be the last chance for walking in the snow until we get the next snowstorm. I live on the Little Menomonee River Parkway in Milwaukee, and it's really quite a nice area to walk around in, right in the city. The snow is still deep enough that the snowshoes are actually useful if you're not on the packed-down bit on the trail. It's more fun than I was expecting. All along the river are lots of pretty places that are otherwise hard to get to. Definitely recommended.
