[pct-l] Snowshoes

[Samuel Ward]

Hello Everyone,
I'm curious as to why snowshoes aren't more popular on the snowed in
sections of the PCT.  From all the accounts of those who do an early Sierra
entry and experience extensive snowed in trail it seems like snowshoes would
remedy a lot of the issues with post holing and slow moving across miles of
snow field.  Besides having to carry the extra weight, is there a reason
people dont typically carry these?  Seems like it would make the hiking much
more enjoyable.
