About the Atlas Helium Bc
With their ultralight design and performance construction, the Atlas Helium BC Unisex Snowshoes are crafted for backcountry travel in challenging terrain.
A composite Helium deck gives you an ultralight platform with a unique louver design that sheds snow for efficient travel and reliable purchase in soft snow and hard-pack conditions. Underfoot, a tempered steel BC crampon is the lightest in the Helium series featuring tangs for bite across variable snow while maintaining a low profile for ease of storage and carry.
A PackFlat™ binding is built to accommodate larger mountaineering and snowboard boots. A single urethane Z-strap holds the foot securely and is fully field-replaceable with the included BC Utility Strap. It is quick and easy to use with a flexible cradle that keeps the weight low while allowing a natural fit and full articulation with every step.
Anodised aluminum serrated rails offer increased grip when ascending, descending, and traversing while a sturdy heel lift aids uphill travel.
The Helium BC men's and women's snowshoes are perfect for fast-moving backcountry tours where space and pack weight are key. An alpine essential for big mountain trips and backcountry ski and snowboard tours.
