Sure - used them lots when I was with the Sheriff's Department on winter Search and Rescue missions.

There are TWO basic types and it all depends upon the snow conditions at the time as to which type would work best...

Please use this link for detailed descriptions, and then check with hubby as to which type would best suit his needs...

Back country hunting...our snow is wet & heavy...not dry & powdery...does this make a difference?

The Beaver Tail would be appropriate for those conditions. Now, just determine if you need heavy duty back country or the recreational grade as far as strength goes for lasting several seasons.
