: Just had a thought, with this really experienced group, anyone ever built
: wooden snowshoes?
: Bill H.
Hi Bill, I haven't made any yet, but I did buy the book!
I'm surprised no one in this crowd hasn't brought up Gil Gilpatrick's snowshoe building book yet. Many of us know Gilpatrick for his woodstrip canoe building book, but he is a man of many talents.
I purchased the book in November with intentions of building some shoes, but ended up buying two pair instead.

I've read most of the book, and it relies heavily on pictures to explain the process. The details in the text are occasionally scattered a bit and might require some digging. It's a decent book but I wish it were better organized and edited.
Cheers,
Bryan
