Winter

The Backcountry is the snowshoe of choice for mountaineering, backpacking, hiking, and general use over uncertain terrain. At only 9” wide and 30" long, the Backcountry provides all the floatation most people will require to easily handle most snow conditions. And at less than 3 lbs. per pair, the Backcountry weighs less than the 22" and 25" models of many other ordinary aluminum frame snowshoes. The Backcountry may be ordered with the traditional Northern Lites Speed binding system when you need the ultimate convenience for getting your snowshoes on and off quickly. Specs

If you are a parent, you have probably been there. Ready to hit the trail for a day of snowshoeing with the family and someone’s snowshoe just fell off in “the deep stuff”. Or, you witness a few too many “faceplants” due to shoes that are designed like a cookie cutter rather than something for your children to snowshoe on. Well, not with Northern Lites Youth models. Designed with the same high strength and light weight frame and decking as our adult shoes as well as our easy to use and proven Tru-Trak binding system, our Youth & Kids models will allow your children to run, walk, hop, skip and jump their way through the snow. Just try to keep up with them! Our youth and kids snowshoes are ultralight and highly durable. Making snowshoeing easy and accessible for the entire family is our goal at Northern Lites Snowshoes, that is why we manufacture snowshoes for all ages and skills. Light snowshoes for kids makes the journey enjoyable and easy, allowing your kids to enjoy the outdoors and now worry what is on their feet.

The Tundra is Northern Lites' super-floater for people carrying larger, heavier loads in the deepest snows.  While these are big snowshoes, they are designed to provide a more natural stride with a width of only 9 1/2".  At 32" long, with almost 260in2 of deck surface area, the Tundra provides all the flotation most people will require in any snow conditions.  The incredibly light weight of all Northern Lites snowshoes is most notable in this size.  At 3 lbs. per pair, the Tundra weighs less than most 22" and 25" models of ordinary aluminum frame snowshoes.  If you are shopping for an oversized snowshoe, the Tundra means huge weight savings.  The average snowshoer takes more than 3,200 strides per mile.  At a typical weight savings of more than 10 oz. per shoe, that means you're saving more than 2,000 lbs. per mile compared to the typical comparable snowshoe.  Of course, what that really means is that there isn't a comparable snowshoe! This Tundra pair is equipped with the traditional Northern Lites TruTrak binding system.
