I agree and really like MSR. I think it was Brad who pointed me to MSR about 15 yrs ago. Replaced my traditional Native Canadian Cree handmade snowshoes which now hang above the fireplace.
I'd go this route:
https://www.msrgear.com/snowshoes/ascent-series/lightning-ascent-snowshoes/lightning-ascent.html and get the 30" model which would allow you to carry a heavy pack, pull a heavy sled or give you more loft.
