Has anyone used Yukon Charlies snowshoes? A friend lent me a pair (Backcountry 825 model) for an upcoming trip but I want to make sure they are agressive/durable enough to use. The trip will involve steep terrain and above treeline exposure. Lots of snow and ice? expected. I am only hesitant because they are some of the cheapest I've found and typically you pay for what you get. Any thoughts or ideas appreciated.

:sun I have had a pair for about three years & they seem fine for general use. I did have something break & they sent me a new part for free, They make lots of snowshoes for many sporting stores like LL Bean. My brother also has pair & has not had any problems.
