Like four-wheel drive for your feet, the BC24 Snowshoes from Atlas Snowshoe allow fast and efficient access to the backcountry. The variable-shaped geometry is wide and short to maximize flotation and mobility, while the stiff shape of the frame creates a responsive suspension.
- Spring-Loaded Suspension provides excellent control by allowing natural articulation of the foot
- The Summit binding collapses for easy transport, and waterproof urethane straps stay dry and light
- Stiff ReactiV 7075 aluminum frame is shaped wider and shorter to increase flotation
- 3D-formed crampons feature shovel-like prongs that grip and hold; sharp end-points bite in the iciest of conditions
- Parallel traction rails give the most bite and stability when traversing
- Duratek plastic decking is puncture resistant and remains flexible in extremely cold conditions
- Weight per pair: 3 lb 3 oz
- Length: 24 inches
- Frame material: 7075 aluminum
- Decking material: Duratek plastic
- Load: 100 - 200 pounds

Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
These are great shoes for backcountry hiking and/or boarding in conditions other than deep powder. I have a feeling that they might be too small to be very effective in the knee deep light and dry but I haven't tested them in those conditions.
