Cold air bites at first light as walkers lace into oversized frames and step out onto the white quiet of Sethan Village. Snowshoe tracks score the slope like pen strokes on paper; the village roofs squat under heavy drifts while the surrounding pines hold slow breaths of snow. Over three days, the pace alternates between steady treks across high meadows and sheltered marches beneath firs, ending each evening around bonfires at a remote wilderness lodge.

Layer for variable cold
Temperatures swing between sun-heated afternoons and frigid nights—base, insulating, and waterproof outer layers are essential.
Footwear and gaiters
Use waterproof hiking boots sized for snowshoe fit and bring gaiters to keep deep powder out of your boots.
Pace for altitude
Move at a steady, conversational pace—snowshoeing is energy-intensive; frequent short breaks help acclimatize and reduce fatigue.
Protect from UV and wind
Bring sunglass, sunscreen, and a windproof buff—snow reflects sun and winds can cut through clothing fast.
