Backpacker

I am a very avid backpacker and climber, and have been for several years. I do a great deal of winter backpacking and camping, and since I live in the Adirondacks, snowshoes are a must. I recently purchased the Tubbs Mountain 30 snowshoe because I needed a larger shoe for my weight. Quite frankly, the bindings are horrible. They are too narrow for my hiking size 10.5 boots. Furthermore, the heel strap is about 6 inches too short. A snowshoe is designed for winter, and to be outside in the one must have a winter boot, which is naturally larger than normal footwear. Tubbs should definitly reconsider their binding design in order to fit wider and larger boots. The plastic on the bindings are quite fragile and in really cold weather, they snap. I always have had trouble with Tubbs bindings, so I would look somewhere else if I were you.
