Going to give up snowshoeing and sell my snowshoes next year at ski swap. I haven't been using them much at all in the past few winters and my posterior tibial tendon dysfunction seems much better. The snowshoes weren't really appropriate for breaking trail but I used them for that anyway, to the detriment of my feet.
So, instead of snowshoeing, when the trails are snow-covered, I'll walk paved roads, sidewalks and forest roads. Today I wanted to walk FR181 but the parking lot was too treacherous for me to park there - fie! (Next time bring a snow shovel!) Instead, I drove to the plowed, paved parking area near the Dome Road, FR289. I walked to its intersection with FR36. They now have mile marker signs on the Dome Road! I estimate I walked 4.5 miles. It wasn't icy or muddy but I'll carry my YakTrax next time just in case.
