Question

why are snow shoes flat and wide? ​

Answer 1

The reason is that your finger applies the pressure over a relatively large area on the surface of the apple. ... When you walk in snow with your normal, foot sized shoes, your weight is distributed only along the length and width of your shoe, so the pressure on the snow is high and you sink into it.
