Summary:
These snowshoes were easy to strap on and walk in from 100 lbs to 200+ lbs, with packs on. We hike in fairly deep snow and moderate elevation terrain. Not climbing any steep mountains. These were used on a Boy Scout Snow Camping trip. We would really like to purchase these for future trips as it gets harder to find enough snowshoes to rent each year. We have some 30" Sherpas but they are a bit large and clumsy for our smaller boys. We will be shopping around for 6 pairs of this MSR Denali style snowshoe at under $100 each. Thanks!

Summary:
Originally bought these SnowShoes because I read reviews of a great product and customer service from MSR. I found both are lacking. After one use and a year later pulling them out of the closet I found rust forming on the traction (Item was stored in a dry closet with my other equipment. Nothing else was rusted.) I sent MSR an email stating the issue along with some pictures for a replacement. However, MSR has never responded back (10+ business days).

Summary:
Great snowshoes. Traction like no other while friends were slipping and sliding on bulletproof snow. Awesome binding system, easy to adjust with gloves on. Adjustable length is innovative adds versatility. Mountain Goat sold them to me at dealer cost (super cool shop)

Summary:
I have the MSR Denali Ascents. This is my first pair of snowshoes but I have rented the aluminum framed and webbed and laced type before. These snowshoes are great. Lite weight and easy to manuever around in. The bindings are awesome and very easy to adjust straps in the cold with thick gloves on. Because they are made of plastic they do make allot of noise when hiking on crusty snow. The elevator climbing bar that can be folded up for steep climbs works excellent and really helps to relieve calf fatigue. I really like the option of adding the tail extensions to the snowshoe if you are in softer and deeper snow or carrying a heavier pack. I highly recommend these shoes.

Customer Service:
Have not needed to use yet.
