Babiche & Bend

Babiche & Bend is a one room workshop behind a farmhouse outside Rangeley, Maine, run by Odile Thibodeau, who learned to lace snowshoes from her grandfather and spent twenty winters as a trail groomer before opening it. She splits white ash from a local woodlot, steams each frame for an hour and bends it over a maple form, lets it dry for six weeks, then weaves the toe and heel with wet rawhide that shrinks drum tight as it dries.
