Snowshoes were developed by First Nations people primarily as a practical tool to navigate snowy terrains more effectively. By distributing their weight over a larger surface area, snowshoes allowed them to travel more easily in deep snow while hunting, gathering, and moving between communities. This innovation facilitated their adaptation to harsh winter conditions, significantly enhancing their mobility and survival in the northern climates.

First Nations traditionally used two main types of snowshoes: the Eastern and Western style. Eastern snowshoes are smaller and rounder in shape, making them more suitable for navigating dense forests and climbing hills. Western snowshoes are longer and narrower, providing better floatation in powdery snow and making them ideal for open landscapes and plains. Each type was designed to suit the specific terrain and conditions of the region it was used in.

To put on snowshoes properly, first loosen the straps and step into the bindings. Make sure your toes are at the front and your heel is secure. Tighten the straps around your foot and ankle for a snug fit. Check that the snowshoes are secure before heading out.
There were no nations when the first people came about, so they had no nation-ality.
