The Wife loves 'em

I bought these for my wife for Christmas, even though she owns a pair of Denali Ascents. After I'd bought myself a pair of Lightning Ascents, I offered to get he a pair. Her response: "I don't need a new pair of snowshoes." That's how much she liked her Denalis! Well, she tried them out for the first time yesterday, and she was impressed. She finds them to be lighter and narrower. She thanked me for buying them for her before she strapped them on. After our six-mile trek, she thanked me again, this time for obvious reasons.
