The Arc'teryx Arrakis 40 has the two cinch strap that would be perfect for carrying snowshoes (or skis and snowboards).And it's waterproof, so the gear inside will stay dry when you're out and it's dumping. It's not shown here but the shoulder harness attaches by a "gridlock" which give you a wide range of adjust-ability, making it super comfortable to carry.
