We love snowshoeing, and Elektra designs them specifically for women. Their newest model, the 12 Series, is based on ergonomic studies of women and adjusts the frame accordingly with outside rolling bends, a narrower waist and a tapered tail. It’s made from aluminum, so it’s light and strong, and it’s designed to be easy to get on and off. These aren’t for racing, but for a good hike up the mountain, they’re worth a look.
