Matt - I have a slightly used pair of 25" Lightning Ascents I'm going to sell, if you're interested.

I prefer the Northern Lites - lighter and have adequate traction for most of the places I go, so I'm looking to pass these along to someone who'll get more use out of them.

Whether that's of interest or not:

The Lightning Ascents are nice snowshoes with an aggressive bite; the bindings are easy to use (much better than the ones on the Denali Evos, for example). Same with the Televator bar, which is really well done in this model. The paint chips off the frame fairly easily, so if aesthetics are a concern, keep that in mind.
