Great tips! I never thought about layering as much as you suggested. The breathability of fabrics is definitely something I’ll consider next time. Thanks for the advice!

In reply to Phil Meades. That is a great question Phil and a common struggle during the spring snowshoe season. Typically snowshoes which have a polyurethane or Teflon coating will help prevent snow and ice build up on their own. I have heard of some using cooking spray or other lubricants such as ski or snowboard wax, petroleum jelly or WD-40 on the bottom of their shoes, but I haven't tried these methods myself. If you do try these, I'd love to hear your thoughts about it and whether it works! I hope this helps!

How does one prevent ice build-up on the bottom of snow shoes when the weather is mild?
