Description

If you want all-day comfort and ease of use on your off-trail forays, look no further than the MSR Lightning Explore snowshoes. They provide easy on/off and heel lifts to reduce fatigue.

Features
  • Improved ratchet system makes getting in and out for lunch stops a breeze, not to mention making on-the-fly adjustments
  • Cushioned cradle in the bindings offers exceptional comfort
  • Heel lifts deploy with the simple flick of a pole grip to reduce fatigue and increase traction on the steeps
  • Macro adjustment straps accommodate a wide range of boot sizes
  • 360° Traction frames deliver a level of security that tubular frames simply can't, especially on traverses
  • Add-on modular flotation tails (not included) accommodate heavier loads, or allow you to go from packed snow to deep powder with a single pair of snowshoes
