The Atlas Apex-BC is surprisingly light and packable for a snowshoe suitable for backcountry terrain. Intended for splitboarding and ice climbing yet suitable for all forms of trekking, this snowshoe delivers a stable, shock-absorbing design that tracks soft snow with an optimal surface area made of seamless decking. Despite the PackFlat binding's low-profile that packs flatter than most snowshoes, it still provides a spring-loaded suspension, stainless steel crampons, and a heel lift when the going gets steep.
