Hi!
Like most people here, I used some of my days off during the holidays to go hike (a very nice hike up Cascade and Porter, although I was pretty out of shape!). It was a good opportunity to try out my brand new snowshoes: MSR Lightnings. After the hike was done, I put all my gear in the trunk and headed back to Montreal (2h30 drive). Obviously, the snow/ice on the snowshoes melted, but when I finally got to my appartment, there was RUST! on my new snowshoes. I'm simply amazed by this. I am going to contact MSR customer service, but I wanted to know if anyone had seen something similar?!
Thanks,
Fish
PS: I'll link to the pictures when I get a chance...I'm at work right now.
