Comments about Atlas 1235 Snowshoes:

I have worn about 8 different snow shoes over the years. When researching different models to purchase a pair this year, I studied a lot and purchased three different 'finalist' models. The Atlas 1235 was *far and away* the best of the bunch, including the 'sexy' top-of-the-line MSR Lightening series, which I expected to like more. The Atlas 12-series have an OUTSTANDING binding. Comfortable, easy to get on and off, and stable. Hands down the best binding I've ever used on any snowshow or similar product. I LOVE these snowshoes, use them often.

Comments about Atlas 1235 Snowshoes:

I've taken these snowshoes on several shorter hikes to get used to them and finally gave them a real test on a 20+ mile snowshoe trip up South Sister.

First great things are the bindings. On the south sister trip, everyone else had MSR Evo's. they took a good 4-5 minutes to take their snowshoes on and off, while I could get in and out in under a minute. They are quick, easy, and doable with one hand and heavy gloves on.

Going up 30+ degree slopes they performed really well. I was able to kick good solid steps even into slush and the televators really saved my calves.

My only minor complaint is that the tails are so long that they make descending in mushy or powdery snow very difficult. I fell repeatedly on steep sections when my tails started sliding. I suspect this has a lot to do with my technique, and I will learn to compensate or even "ski" down on my tails, but all the other people on their MSR's went down steep slopes much easier.

I had some trouble glissading with these because they are so long that they would drag in the snow when secured to my pack the usual vertical way, so I had to find a way to secure them horizontally. On shorter slopes I was able to overlap my toes and sit on the sails and glissade down that way what a blast!

Other than the paint, these shoes show no signs of wear despite crossing logs, gravel, and even some rocks. They are tough as nails. All in all I love these shoes!
