Anyone into snowshoeing?

Just bought a pair for us recently. Haven't gotten much time on them yet but we just go outside our door, down by the river, around through the woods, etc. Plan on doing some smaller hikes once S gets her stamina up a bit. Hard getting out during ski season but doing it on the off days. Should be able to get more time after work once things stay lighter longer.

We both have Tubbs snowshoes. Use them when we go into BSP(Baxter State Park) trips, which are at least once a year, if not twice like this year. They are great!

Went in with my buddy on 2 pairs of Atlas 1230's (for us) and 2 pairs of Atlas Elektra 1023 for the wives for a great deal. Tried them out yesterday. Click here for trip report.

I don't get out nearly as often as I'd like to, but there is something magical about getting to an isolated bit of trail or being off trail at altitude in the winter. I'm trying to get through a mound of work so I can get into the mountains on Sunday.
