Please help me choose.
I'm 6'2" - 220-230 pounds with a pack.
I need snowshoes for mountaineering.
I'm trying to decide between the 30" Lightning Ascents or the Denali Evo Ascents with flotation tails. I have heard so many mixed feelings on these I was hoping to hear more for my exact needs. Thanks

Get the 30" Lightning Ascents. No tails to deal with (K.I.S.S.).
