Honestly, ever since I got a good pair of trekking poles, I'll never go out without them. It adds a little stability, but mostly provides comfort, and actually makes the hike easier.

Apparently certain snow shoes work with skiboots and others do not ... I just pulled the plug and bought one that is supposed to work with skiboots. .. I have an Alpine Touring Ski boot and also a Salomon Verse Skiboot like you have ... I think the Salmon verse you have will work fine in the Snowshoe I bought .. I am going to give it a try and report back ... should have my first trip Saturday am if Snowshoe arrives as advertised.
