The Atlas 11 series snowshoe is great for climbing steep hills. It has great traction and a climbing bar. The climbing bar is a must have for any steep hills. The Atlas 12 series will provide a little more traction but will cost a little more as well. You could take a step down to the Atlas 10 series but still get the climbing bar feature.
