Atlas Helium Trail Snowshoe Kit

First, two incontrovertible facts. One, winter hiking without snowshoes and poles is a thankless slog and possibly repayment for some previous karmic error. Two, winter hiking is an absolute blast with snowshoes and poles! Moral of the story? Get yourself some snowshoes and poles if you love winter hiking!

Updated for '22/'23, Atlas's Helium Trail snowshoes offer a bombproof design coupled with all the features you'll need to tackle any winter trail outside of super-extreme sufferfests. The most notable addition to these reliable snowshoes is the new Wrapp Stretch binding system. Boasting a secure and comfortable fit, the binding's diamond pattern optimizes fit by stretching taut over whichever boots you're wearing. Quick-fitting and easy to use with 2-buckle closure, the Wrapp Stretch is a significant improvement over Atlas's previous (and totally sufficient) webbing binding.

Let's not stop with the binding. The Helium series also boasts an ultralight composite deck which sheds snow and is oblivious to the battering it is sure to take. A new easy-climb 12 degree Heel Lift assists those uphill traverses, while steel tangs coupled with steel traction rails serve up ideal grip and traction on slopes and uneven snow.

This Snowshoe Kit also includes a set of Trail Walking 2-Piece Poles that serve up lightweight packability, easy locking adjustment, and big old powder baskets. Rounding out the package is the Snowshoe Tote Bag, a roll-top closure carrying system with reinforced cleat protection and adjustable shoulder strap.
