Snowshoe Maintenance is very easy to do. Doing this will allow your snowshoes to last you a lifetime! Wondering what varnish what was? Marine Spar Varnish - no specific brand preferred
I just pulled mine down yesterday and sanded and applied the first coat of varnish and will do a 2d, 3d coat over the next couple of days. Good reminder though for those of us that don't use the new aluminum shoes. Thanks as always for the great info and tips Dan. Until next time stay safe and warm……Ed
Good video. Great info. Thanks for talking about this as this is one of the areas that many of us who don't use snowshoes that often really know little about.
Good video I’ve waked many miles on snow shoes and agree maintenance is important When the varnish wares off the banish becomes wet it’s like rubber bands
I wld love to live in pa. Im stuck down here in maryland right on the edge of baltimore city. I work for the local government down here, utilities type of work, water,sewer lines etc. Im looking to move north but not canadian north,like i said pa north lol. How are the job oportunities in the area u live dan? I've said it before but i appreciate the knowledge & time it takes for u to shoot,edit,upload etc i know a lot goes into it. Helps city slickers like me who dont actually get to experience the homestead/outdoor experience without vacationing & or taking off work to do so. I wld very much like to get a taste of homesteading up close & personal bc i know enough to know that watching u do it and actually living it is two totally different worlds. In any case brother thank u for doing what u do,my 7 year old son & myself really enjoy watching ur extremely educational videos 👍👍👍🇺🇸
are mukluks really a must? can I get away with boots ... want to get into it this year... but cant afford expensive mukluks.. but also don't want to destroy the snowshoes.
