MSR Lightning Ascent Snowshoe

Now even more durable thanks to new Torsion2TM crampons, our most aggressive snowshoes are built on a solid foundation of our advanced 360º TractionTM frames and deliver a level of ultralight security that tubular frames simply can’t – especially on traverses. Dual-component PosiLockTM AT bindings offer our most secure attachment, while aggressive steel cross members and easily engaged ErgoTM Televators back you up with every step.

Unrivalled Traction: 360º Traction frames deliver edge-to-edge grip, and split teeth of Torsion2TM crampons better distribute forces and offer more continuous contact-delivering unmatched traction on any terrain, in any conditions.

Secure Attachment: Two-piece, independently conforming PosiLockTM AT bindings create our most secure, freeze-resistant attachment, regardless of footwear.

All-Condition Adaptability: Add-on Modular Flotation tails allow you the maneuverability of a smaller, primary snowshoe with the added, on-demand flotation of optional, 5-inch (13-cm) tails.

Uphill Efficiency: ErgoTM Televators reduce fatigue and increase traction on the steeps with an ergonomic design that engages with a simply flick of a pole grip.
