Snow shoes were used by the Arctic Circle populations to move through the waist-deep snowy lands of the North Pole. Today, in the same place, people use thundering snow mobiles but snow shoes remain a useful tool to run across our mountains.
The wintry face of the mountains is the most suggestive thing you can imagine. Walking through deep and silent coniferous woods we may see some little habitants of the forest.
