MSR Lightning Ascent Snowshoe (2017 Model)

Now even more reliable thanks to new tougher decking, our ultralight snowshoes are built on a solid foundation of our advanced 360 Degree Traction frames and deliver a level of security that tubular frames simply can’t-especially on traverses. Dual-component AT bindings offer our most secure attachment, while aggressive steel cross members and easily engaged Ergo Televators back you up with every step. And like all of our snowshoes, Lightning Ascents offer the all-condition adaptability of our Modular Flotation tails.
