A new guide can help you decide how to stay active in the pending (or so the calendar says) snow. Snowshoe magazine, a quarterly publication launching in December, is the first of its kind. Founders say it’s designed to appeal to everyone from “backcountry enthusiasts” to “first-timers.” They also claim that snowshoeing is the fastest growing winter sport in the U.S.
Though it might be hard for novices to imagine what such a magazine might cover besides, well, snow and snowshoes, the first issue includes articles like “Snowshoeing in an Austrian Winter Wonderland,” “The Atlas Trans-Sierra Snowshoe Trek,” and “Snowshoeing Yoga.” This is all an expansion of their two-year-old, recently revamped website, SnowshoeMag.com, which has bulletin boards, articles, a snowshoe blog, and a calendar of races and other events.
