I have a secret. It’s not a dark secret. I will probably tell you after a couple cups of Chai or if asked directly but I don’t usually offer this up. I live in Colorado, I am a native, and I have never skied or tried snowboarding. I am not saying I will never try either of these winter sports but here’s the thing…I love snowshoeing. Not only is it easy and fairly inexpensive but it’s a lot of fun and you burn serious calories while enjoying the sun and the snow.
This season I was fortunate to try out a new pair of women-specific snowshoes from Atlas, The Elektra 1023. When I first opened up the box I was impressed with the compact design but a little intimidated by the foot bindings. It looked like a lot of webbing and maybe a bit complicated. I was wrong.
