Using poles for greater stability on snowshoes :
We strongly advise you to bring a pair of poles for better stability when snowshoeing. All the more so if you're planning to hike on hilly terrain (slopes, descents, etc.) or in powder snow, where you're likely to sink a little deeper. There are 2 types of washers: choose the wide washers so that the poles stay on the surface.
Choose breathable clothing for snowshoeing:
When hiking in the snow, we tend to over-equip ourselves for fear of getting cold. But snowshoeing warms you up very quickly.
Adopt the 3-layer technique!
This technique allows you to modulate your heat intake according to the level of effort required: remove a garment when it's hot, and put it back on when it's colder, or during breaks. If you're too hot, you'll sweat more, which will cool you down when you take a break or go downhill.
Dressing with the 3-layer technique?
To dress properly in winter, whatever your activity, we recommend applying the 3-layer principle:
layer 1: technical undergarments allow moisture transfer to keep the skin dry.
layer 2: the second layer (fleece, sweater) provides warmth and moisture transfer.
layer 3: the jacket protects against external conditions: rain, snow, wind.
The whole garment must be breathable to evacuate moisture.
NEVER FORGET SAFETY...
If you're going off-piste, you'll need a map, compass and/or GPS, as well as an avalanche transceiver, shovel and probe. These three items will enable you to be found if you're caught in an avalanche, or to search for a victim. And don't forget to brush up on your safety basics.
