Snowshoeing Techniques - Part 10

Etiquette
(Part 10 of 10)

• Xcountry skiers work hard to make their tracks.  So when breaking trail, you encounter a Xcountry track, either step over it or break trail along side. 
• Skiers have the right-of-way. It's easier for a snowshoer to step and change direction than a skier.
• When with a group, remain single file, and use the leaders prints.
• Always be polite and respect other outdoor enthusiasts.
• When back at the TH, nordic center, or resort, remove your snowshoes, cinch them together cleat to cleat, and hang them on a rack provided, or out of the way of people traffic.
• Poles should be fully collapsed and cinched to your pack or hung with your snowshoes until you are ready to leave.
