Snowshoes this weekend?

Post by JsinDeAZ »

I'm doing Sherman this Saturday. I'm not taking snowshoes. Should I? I don't think they will be necessary with current conditions or projected couple inches of snow. Thoughts?

I dunno, but if I was planning on heading up there on Saturday I'd at least bring them in the car. They're not going to do you a bit of good hanging on the wall in the garage. With the new snow that they're predicting over the next few days, they may actually come in handy although chances are you probably could get by without them.

I was there last Saturday and they were definitely not necessary. But I'd take microspikes.
