I'm with Neil - I've only ever used 1 * 8mm rope. Admittedly, we usually hunted in 2 packs of 2, each with a rope. The cord solves this if you're only one group. Great idea. I completely dissagree - snowshoes are da bomb on just about any terrain where you're not wearing crampons. Don't know what the conditions will be like this summer, but last year there was mega deep snow around Tasman saddle. Climbing Ellie de Beaumont, I kid you not, I was sinking up to my waist in some sections. The party next to us zoomed up with their MSR shoes on... (talk to "V" for the footage to prove it). Just leave them at the base of the hill when it gets steep (a generalisation, I know...)
