    • Great Showshoes with One Flaw
I needed some new technical snowshoes for hiking in the Adirondack High Peaks. These came highly recommended based on the conditions in the Adirondacks. I've been using these for 2-3 months on various hikes, mostly 15-20 mile day hikes with mixed terrain consisting of packed trail, deep powder, ice, rock and lots of elevation gain. The snowshoes have held up great so far. The traction is very good, even in some steep icy conditions. Places where I would usually need to switch to microspikes, I've been able to power through with these snowshoes. The televator bar is amazing; I don't know how I lived without it. It's a little tough to work at first, but once it broke in, I was able to lift and lower it using my trekking poles. When it comes to deeper powder, they struggle a bit. I purchased the extra tails for additional float, but the difference was negligible. If you're planning on spending a lot of time in deep power, or breaking trail, I'd recommend a snowshoe dedicated to those conditions. I've only found one super annoying flaw, and it's the straps. They're a headache to lock into place, and definitely not glove or mitten friendly. There's a weak point where the strap wraps around and you lock into place with a metal peg on the binding, which slips into the hole in the strap. I've broken at least one binding strap on every single hike I've been on, and it's always at this weak point. I think the pressure on the strap, combined with the cold weather, and the metal binding, causes it to weaken and break. I've purchased extra straps to take with me, but they're not cheap. These are great snowshoes and I have no regrets. Fix the strap issue, and these would be a perfect pair. ... show more

    • Very impressed with these snowshoes!
My husband and I are new to snowshoeing. We were looking for a fun sport opposite our kayaking adventures. When we buy things, I look at features and durability. This fit both for us. I love all the metal spikes both under the ball of your foot but also down the sides. Excellent feature on ice and deeper snow and more fun when you feel stable. Haven't used the heel riser yet for inclines but there will be a day that will come in handy. We also liked the bindings. The rubber is replaceable but we've been out for 2 seasons in them and never had an issue. Plastic parts break over time and that's what I like on these is the heavy rubber to metal bindings. Built to last a long time. The snowshoes are well made plastic, they are lighter and easy to keep going. Also got the tails for blazing your own trail in deeper snow. Like that you can remove them when you don't need them. Wisconsin gets it's fair share of snow. Very happy with our purchase 2 years in. ... show more

    • Used these instead of crampons to go up the Baldy Bowl. Worked like a charm👌

So these are like 2 oz heavier than the lightning ascents? Shouldn't even be a question because when I'm walking over rocks and roots on trails with patches of no snow, which is common down in Socal, I'm glad I have the hard plastic body instead of the fabric alternative. The traction on these are phenomenal. I will use these over crampons in every situation I've encountered and can think of. After working on my form I can walk up a steep slope of soft snow with ease. We're talking 35-40 degrees on the Baldy Bowl. The strap system doesn't bother me at all. So don't look here for critical feedback on that. What else can I say, I have ran down Devil's Backbone on Mount Baldy in these. I've walked up ice covered Moro Rock in Sequioa in the middle of winter and I didn't slip for even one step. These have made hiking in the snow more enjoyable than any other piece of gear. Thank you Mountain Safety Research :) ... show more

    • And the bindings are kind of funny hard to use with mittens but worth it
I had a pair of tubs alpine whatever and they were definitely more strong and easy to put on however for the price these are great thrash them across the rocks and don’t even care.

    • Easy to fasten bindings
I originally bought these because a friend has a pair and I really liked the bindings. I also bought the extensions because worried about the small size. Used them recently with the extensions and sunk way too far in the snow (8" or more). Another person had classic Alaskan snowshoes (56") and sunk less than 1" into the snow. I'm guessing they will be useful on crusted snow in this spring while tapping trees. ... show more

    • Everything you need in a snowshoe!
I am absolutely impressed with these shoes! I'll be heading out into the snow covered Yosemite wilderness in the next two days and I'll be able to give more information. For now, these are my observations: -Very light. You don't really feel them on your feet -extreme grip. I tried shimmying and shaking but they wouldn't lose grip. -great features. The heal rise and the straps are excellent. -strong materials. Everything seems to be very high quality. -great feel while walking. I'll update this post after my first big snow hike! ... show more

    • Best Snowshoes I Have Owned
These are the best snowshoes I have ever owned. What I like: durable, good traction, they don’t kick up snow, easy to take on and off. I have worn multiple other brands, and the msr evo ascent is by far the best. I do a lot of snowshoeing around the Adirondack mountains and these are perfect.

    • Best snowshoes ever!

My brother in the Adirondacks recommended them. I use them in the Sierras. Best snowshoes i have ever used. Light and easy on/off. Got the tails for snow but also has great aggressive grip for icy areas found in the Sierra winter sun. Used them every chance I get.
