Weight matters. That is why Crescent Moon created the Yellowstone 24.5 (previously Gold 12) snowshoe. Weighing only 1.65 pounds a shoe, the Yellowstone 24.5 will help you get away on packed trails, up ski runs, and across race courses. The Yellowstone 24.5 has the same tear drop shaped frame as well as an even lighter foot forming binding that holds your foot securely from top to bottom and front to back, from start to finish. Crescent Moon replaced the stainless steel crampons with aluminum crampons to create the ultimate light weigh trail snowshoe. To keep your feet warm and dry, consider the neoprene booties that fit over your running shoes for complete comfort.
