Snowshoeing

Boost your winter workout and build up your endurance throughout the winter. Snowshoeing is a very easy and enjoyable way to get outside during the snowy winter days. All you need is a sense of adventure and good boots. If you can walk you can snowshoe. 

If you do not have your own snowshoes, you can check them out from South Dakota State Parks. The parks have snowshoes that fit anyone from youth to adult and they are free to check out for a day or a weekend.
