Thanks so much for sticking with me on this. This is one of the few link I found for that. https://www.msrgear.com/snowshoes/ascent-series/evo-ascent-snowshoes/05886.html It mentions 'load with tails' (250lb) and load (standard) (180lb)'. What are tails? Ah, I should be able to look that up! Oh, I see. So they would be sold separately? At $200 I think that's a bit out of my range, especially if I have to buy tails to bring the specs up to my weight (230lb plus maybe 20lb camera gear). What about these for a beginner? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DX1M8D5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_Y9xYFb8NNPWDS?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
