With the snowier than normal winter we’re experiencing, I purchased snow shoes. Snowshoes are a great low-tech invention to spread your weight over the snow so you can walk on top of it without sinking down in it.

One of the neat things about snowshoes is that not many people have them so you can have normally popular trails all to yourself. There were no human tracks on this section of the Appalachian Trail several days after the recent big snow storms (only animal tracks).
