I received a couple PM's asking about H style bindings and questionable ice.
Here are a couple of pix that will be familiar to most but might be a new idea for someone.
I take an old truck inner tube and cut some slices from it....makes a big rubber band. I slip two of them over my showshoes to hold them together in the sled.
When I am not sure about the ice or working around a beaver house I sip one rubber band over each boot and up my leg.
Next, just stick your toe through the toe strap of the H binding and stretch the rubber band over the toe of your boot and under it.
If you go through into the water...a quick twist of your foot will free it from the snowshoe.
These are really handy too if you are on and off your webs in short intervals tending traps.
