Modified BearPaw
Remember to add Bindings to this snowshoe.

The Bear Paw model is the second most popular snowshoe shape. It takes its origin from Indians Nations of Eastern Canada and from the Great North of Canada, particularly the Indian Innu Nation (Montagnais). Mostly used for hunting, trapping, bird watching and long-distance adventures in dense forest.

Its wide and short shape allows efficient & silent movement in crowded areas of the forest. Also offered in a longer version for more versatility in open field (Modified Bear Paw).

- Frame made of Appalachian white ash and lacing made of cow raw hide.

- High quality varnish to keep the raw hide and the frame in good condition.

- HARNESS SOLD SEPARATELY.

Note: It is recommended to apply varnish once a year at the end of the season to prevent the wood frame and raw hide to absorb moisture and water. That will extend the life of your natural snowshoe. We recommend using a wood boat varnish.
