>>2742210The answer is ski instead. But seriously it's best to stick with heavily cramponed plastic based snowshoes with or without extended tails when needed. Anything outside that is for way easier terrain and it might be better to just walk in some cases. Consider that I exclusively bring out my snowshoes when I had tackled winter mountaineering objectives when the snowpack was fresh and unconsolidated. Oh and last thing, the strapping system is very important to consider, although msr shoes are neat the strappings on a lot of their models are complete ass and you will have to re-secure them often, boa really is best here, dont know why the fuck most companies besides tsl have put them on all of their shoes
