Our newest backcountry snowshoe, the HELIUM BC 26 inch snowshoe, is the lightest in the Helium quiver with the 23” coming in under 3 lbs! Combining the new Helium Deck and BC Crampon with anodized aluminum traction rails and the tried-and-true Packflat™ Binding this is a do-it-all snowshoe in the ultimate lightweight package.
Helium Deck:
The deck of the all-new Helium series provides the foundation making these the lightest composite snowshoes available. The unique louver sheds snow to keep them lightweight, while also creating traction.
Helium BC Crampon:
Designed and tested to meet the standards of alpine adventurers, the BC is the lightest crampon in the Helium series. Crafted from tempered steel, this crampon’s tangs provide the bite needed in variable snow conditions. The BC Crampon also maintains a low profile to complement the PackFlat™ Binding.
PackFlat™ Binding:
Designed for backcountry snowboarding and climbing, the new PackFlat™binding features quick-lashing urethane straps that are fully field-replaceable with the included BC Utility Strap. Able to accommodate bigger snowboard boots, the bindings collapse flat for easy storage in your pack.
Aluminum Traction Rails:
