They’re fun to have and get around. I would just use them for the entertainment and fun value. I got some of those real good strap-on studded ice-shoes, too, for when there are those ice storms. It has replaceable studs in them and I figured that I was going to need them around here (got them a couple of years back). You strap them on around boots (or shoes). They’re super heavy duty ones, too.
But, I don’t know about snow shoes... :-) ... I’ve used them around Crater Lake in Oregon, but snow-shoeing is a lot of work, actually. Cross-country skis are a breeze, though.
When it's bad like this, I only get out to get mail, dump the trash, or bring in the wood off the patio, lol. Other than that I just stay indoors and cook, read or internet.
As you know, yesterday it was up to 72 degrees, now this, wait til tomorrow it will be gone. That's just Okla., not much need to invest in much, except to just have fun in it while you can.
