A set of poles will help you keep your balance while snowshoeing and make crossing slopes a little easier. Ski poles, snowshoe poles or trekking poles are all good to use. Make sure the poles you choose are the right size for you and aren’t too heavy. Poles will come in handy especially when you are crossing steep or deep terrain. Make sure you get adjustable poles as they can be shortened for uphill travel and lengthened for going downhill. When crossing slopes, one pole should be lengthened for the downhill side and the other one shortened for the uphill side. Poles come in various styles sizes, materials and colors.
