Snowshoes can be checked out for a 7 day loan period. Snowshoes are subject to regular library overdue policies and fees; lost or damaged snowshoes are subject to a fee for replacement of snowshoes.
Anyone with a Cochrane Public Library card.
Yes, you can. Snowshoeing is a fun winter activity for people to do together.
Unfortunately, due to the high demand for snowshoes, we are unable to take hold requests at this time.
Snowshoes can be returned to Cochrane Public Library during open hours. Snowshoes cannot be put in the book drop and are the responsibility of the borrower until they are returned in person to the library.
The ideal snowshoe size depends mainly on your weight and the weight of anything you will be carrying while on the snowshoes. The following chart will help you determine which size is best for an individual.

Ice traction cleats are a traction system that allow anyone, of any age, to get out and safely enjoy winter. They provide better stability & safety when walking on ice or packed snow.
