MSR partnered with an orthopedic gait specialist to design the revolutionary new Women's Lightning Ascent. The result is a snowshoe that features all the technical advantages of our Lightning Ascent™ —including unprecedented traction, performance, and usability—along with an even lighter, narrower frame that's specially tuned for a woman's stride.

MSR men's Lightning Ascent features:
Designed for Women: Lighter and narrower than Lightning Ascents, these snowshoes are specially tuned for a woman's stride.
Unmatched on Steep Terrain: Televator™ heel lifter reduces calf fatigue, making climbing easier and more efficient.
User-Friendly: 3-strap step-on binding fits a variety of boots and is fast, secure, and easy to use.
Stable Support: True Hinge™ steel crampon enhances foot stability and minimizes heel drift, resulting in more efficient gait mechanics and less expended energy.
100% Waterproof: Materials won't soak up water and freeze; straps remain easy to use in all conditions.
