There is a lot of great advice on here. If you really want your mind blown, you can look into snowshoe RUNNING. I have some shoes specifically for that. It’s a trip (no pun intended at all). You need specialized shoes for that though. They are lighter and shaped different. You attach them right to your running shoes.

Tip: Most areas in Maine have snowmobile trails wherever there are power lines. You can legally use those, but please stay on the trails! And get to the side when snowmobiles come by, and wave! We all love having access and being friendly. Hope to see ya out there! It’s my favorite sport of all!

Ok, another tip: bring a solar blanket, and hand and feet warmers, and a snack and water. And make sure to tell someone the trail you’re going out on. You just never know, best to be safe!

MSR makes very durable shoes with easy to put on bindings. I’ve had mine close to 20 years. You can just replace parts as they break. I would definitely get poles, and find some local snowmobile trails to try out first. Deep snow will kick your ass, so packed snow is best for a beginner.

Edit: Also, you’ll wear less clothes than you think! It’s a very sweaty sport! I normally wear a windbreaker over a hoody. Also, street hikers for me are best, especially on packed snow.
