Cheap place for MSR Lightning Ascent Snowshoes??? (Womens)

Looking for a sale on the womens (7" width) lightning ascents. Would prefer 25" but 22" would probably work as well. With all of the winter sales going on has anyone seen these included?

I have some black ones. Not sure if there mens or womens. Never been used. Email me at my name no spaces at yahoo.

Used market is flooded with men's at good prices but seems like the slightly narrower women's is hard to find.

Bumpity - anybody else?

I’ve never ordered from this site before, but ~$150 for the 2017 model isn’t so terrible. I have an older pair that I’d consider selling for $100? (not sure on sizing, I can check) but with shipping it probably wouldn’t be that great of a deal. I’m in summit county Colorado though if you’re around for a local pickup :)

Do you have the womens? Its a bit skinnier than the mens.

Unfortunately the ones you linked are the Lightning "Trail" which is a significantly different snowshoe

What length do you have? I shipped snowshoes once pretty affordably ish

Hi guys I have some MSR snow shoes will check sizes and models and post.

If you’re near an REI I’ve seen a bunch of these popping up at garage sales.

All sold

I know this thread is old now and you may have found a solution in the intervening time, but OP, is there a super compelling reason not to just use the "men's" version? I understand that there's a small weight penalty, but you also get more flotation. My partner and I got the 25" lightning ascents, one men's one women's, but when her parents decided to get a pair as well, we just told them to get two men's as they were easier to find.

Maybe for your uses the narrower frame is better. For me, even being a not very heavy person (160ish), I find that the men's 25's struggled hard in powdery or crusty snow.
