Snowshoe Making Class
Join expert Aaron “Hutch” Hutchings in making your very own snowshoes. This class will take you step-by-step in making your own set of snowshoes. You will leave class with both the finished product and skills to make more.
Aaron “Hutch” Hutchings is a Colorado native, veteran, and father of four. He was raised in the Rocky Mountains by a real mountain man and hunting guide he called Grandpa. His love for adventure was first sparked by his grandfather’s teaching and stories. This spark was blown into flame in the Boy Scouts and fanned to a full-on bonfire in the Marine Corps.
