Description

The MSR Lightning Ascent Women’s Snowshoes are the lightest, most aggressive snowshoes in the MSR line, designed for backcountry pursuits. Engineered to address the biomechanics of women, they are also suitable for anyone with a narrower gait seeking an ultralight option with maximum maneuverability and agility. Minimalist Paragon bindings feature a one-piece mesh contouring strap that wraps securely around boots for a glove-like feel that eliminates pressure points and promotes alignment and foot control. The ultra-durable, variable-thickness TPU mesh conforms to a wide range of boots, and maintains strength and flexibility in frigid weather; bindings are field-maintainable. A 360-degree traction frame offers edge-to-edge grip, and steel DTX crampons provide bite on slopes. Rugged, lightweight polyurethane decking offers floatation and durability, and easy-to-engage Ergo Televator heel lifts offer help on the steeps, reducing fatigue. Available in two sizes to accommodate a range of body weights and gear loads: 22-inch snowshoes measure 7.25x22 inches, weigh 3.88 pounds/pair, and can carry a 180-pound load; 25-inch snowshoes measure 7.25x25 inches, weigh 4.04 pounds/pair, and can carry up to 220-pounds. Bindings fit women’s shoe sizes 4.5-14. Sold as a pair. Made in the USA. Three-year limited warranty.

  • one of the rivets broke within 2 miles on first use
I was very excited about trying out this new pair of lightning ascent, but a couple miles into this fairly easy trail, I noticed one of the screws/rivets holding the footplate to the snowshoe on my right foot is gone.. I did manage to complete the rest of the ~5 mile hike, but ended up using microspikes on the way down. I've contacted MSR, and I suspect the screw is easy to replace, but if you do go for these highly rated/highly priced snowshoes, be sure to get a repair kit and always take it with you! ... show more
