How topical could we possibly get? We are well into winter and in most northern (north of Florida anyway) areas there is ample snow for the sport of snowshoeing. Snowshoeing can be invigorating and pleasurable and also satisfying knowing that the snowshoes you are using were made by you. The author is a renowned and legendary state of Maine Guide who should know a lot about the sport (or recreation) of snowshoeing. Gilpatrick literally walks you through the process of making not only a varied sort of snowshoes but some interesting rustic furniture as well. Different styles and sizes of snowshoes are discussed for the type of snowshoeing that the user is planning to do. The bending of ash is described as ash is the wood of choice for this sport and the lacing is discussed and illustrated in depth. The author prefers using nylon lacing over the traditional rawhide as it maintains its tension better. The making of the rustic furniture is fully detailed in the book and it includes a rocker, coffee table, footrest, end table and more. If you want to enjoy the winter out of doors then this is the book for you to become one with nature.
