MSR Lightning Ascent Snowshoe - Women's
Best snowshoes year after year

Ranked #522 - Snowshoes
October 17, 2007
I've had these MSRs for 3 seasons now. I snowshoe every Sunday, all winter long in deep powder and on hard crusty snow (Sierra Cement we call it). When other people I snowshoe with are slipping, the MSRs grip!!!! They are the best snowshoes I've ever used. I rented other brands before buying and I've been very happy with my decision to buy the Lightning Ascent. The lifts are great for steep climbs. My husband bought some too and loves them. I highly recommend them.
