I grabbed the pair of metal/rubber chainy things my landlord had in the garage but will need to learn how to put them on! #1stVermontBlizzardForMe

Yes, the bindings. There must be some illustrations on the interwebs of how yours work.

"metal/rubber chainy things" sounds more like microspikes than snowshoes.

Yes, either them, or new, modern snowshoes.

Maybe? I wouldn’t describe those as “chainy”. Micro spikes have chains holding the spikes together.

This isn't a blizzard though. Just your typical nor'easter. If what you have are things that go over your boots for traction, they won't be of much help. Those are for ice...
