Message definition (AY Honors/Snowshoeing/Answer Key)

</noinclude>
;Water: It is easy to become dehydrated when exerting oneself. Take plenty of water to avoid this risk. When snowshoeing, it is a small matter to tow a supply sled, so you can load it up with supplies. Be warned though, that water can freeze. A Camelbak (or similar equipment) is good for this because the water is held near the body where it can be warmed by the heat you give off. If you do run out of water, do not eat snow or ice - melt it first. Consuming frozen water will lower your body temperature and increase the risk of hypothermia.
;Snacks: One reason that snowshoeing is such a great activity is because you can pretty much eat constantly while on the trail without gaining weight. You need energy. If you become incapacitated, having a store of energy available will allow you to warm yourself with your metabolism by shivering. Shivering is the body's way of converting food energy to heat, but that energy must come from somewhere. If you run out of energy to metabolize, but are still cold, your body temperature will drop and you will be at risk of hypothermia.
