Ebay always has some pretty good deals especially on MSR's I got a couple of pairs of Asscents on there last year for about 50 percent of suggested retail last year. And the bags to store them in as well.
Thanks, I'll look into it.Quote:

I'm going to be making my own using this method, not sure if you're interested in a DIY, but here's the link: http://inquiry.net/outdoor/winter/ge...oes/indian.htm
it's a very clean simple method that could turn out looking great (unlike survival snowshoes made of twigs, lol)
I priced out materials locally. 1x6 pine is $0.79/ft or you could use a single plank of 1x12 pine $1.79/ft
I didn't price the hardwood, but u dont need much of it, so I would guess something like $10?
these prices are local for me, but I cant see them being too far off your local costs.
just an idea
