Snow In The Forecast

Snow is in the forecast for Central Mass. Okay, it's calling for a flurry or a dusting. But, isn't that always how it starts? First you measure in inches, then, before you know it, it's feet! Unless you happen to live in Buffalo where every measurement seems to be in feet.

For those who enjoy it, opportunities for outdoor winter recreation abound. From past experience in outdoor recreation, I have found that the amount of enjoyment is directly related to the quality of the equipment used. It's a good idea to buy the best equipment that you can afford.


Mention any sport and a number of brand names come to mind as being ones that we would love to own. Mention snowshoeing and one of the first top-of-the-line brands you think of is Tubbs. These Tubbs Sierras are in excellent condition. Everything appears to be intact. Reviewers have referred to this model as "lightweight," "durable" and "rugged."

According to Tubbs Company literature, this shoe is recommended for a user weight of 160 - 220 lbs. and the shoe is designed for day hiking/all terrain.

Check out the prices on new Tubbs snowshoes, and then check this pair out for $75.
