Etymology
Snowshoeing comes from the simple parts snow and shoe, plus the ending -ing. A snowshoe is like a big, flat shoe that helps you stay on top of the snow and not sink so you can 'walk on snow', and -ing makes it the 'activity', so snowshoeing means walking over snow using these special shoes.
