"MSR introduces a sleek, new snowshoe this season, the Denali Evo. This premier snowshoe has the same great traction and modular design as the Denali Classic, but with a beefed-up deck, binding, and crampon for improved performance and usability. Steel traction blades, crampons, and molded braking bars in the deck yield UNMATCHED traction, not to mention peace of mind on steep, death-ice pitches. A new stand-up binding by MSR makes the Denali Evo super easy to get in and out, and still folds down for easy packing and storage. The Evo deck with a tapered tip and tail allows you to walk with a more natural gait so you're not doing the Franken-stride . A crampon extension plate eliminates heel drift while the 4-strap binding locks your foot in for a great fit and secure attachment to the snowshoe."

"I have owned and used the MSR Denali Evo for one season and although it is an easy system to use I did have issues about the integrity of the rubber straps. These issues arose after using the snowshoes in -30 weather along the eastern shoreline of Lake Superior."
