In reply to mike123:
In the UK I was dealt with by someone in Ireland who I believe covered all the Cascade Designs companies including MSR. They were absolutely great and got me new parts for my snowshoes to get them working again - this was after someone "reached out" (I know some hate the expression, but it is perfect here because I didn't do anything, they contacted me) after I mentioned on a thread here that I had managed to break a part on one of the pair, years ago. My other interaction with Cascade was some years ago when my 20 year old thermarest started delaminating. I sent it to them, they apologised and said unfortunately it can't be fixed so sent me the nearest equivalent modern one, which of course is lighter and more compact.
Hope you get sorted out.
