Hey Oleg, Did you find these boots were harder to dry than other single boots? Thanks for the insight. -r

I am confused. Is Danielle Fisher responsible for 911? I am going back to reading trip reports.

I still am looking for hard evidence about the McKinley Assasination cover up. Leon F. Czolgosz was not alone.

32 tries for Parka to get to Coat. At one point he guessed Girlfriend and I cannot remember if that was before or after he asked "Can you put something in it?" -r

Kevin, As with most of my footwear, I break them in summiting the mighty Mt. Tabor numerous times, dogs in hand. I probably put on 15-20 hours before heading to the mountains. That's less time than I usually like to on a new boot but I was no worse the wear. Top answer your question more directly, I had little to no problems during break in, especially after I got the lower lacing dialed in. However, I seem to do really well with La Sportiva's for fit in general. Now back to farting around with my flippin crampons -r

I've had good luck with mine, but since I just recently got them, my experience is limited. My feet stayed toasty warm around 0 f doing nothing special, but I've yet to do anything multi-day with them. Word of warning. If you have toe bail crampons don't assume they will fit. I had to really fxxk around with my Grivel G-14's. After a call to Grivel, it was apparent I was not alone on this. Best... -r

Problem was it should have been done on Tele skis or a snowboard. Those little skis are like figure skates. -r

We climbed there yesterday. The road is open and dry all the way to CS. I'd say we hiked 1//2 mile of dirt to skinable condiitons. We did a 3:30 alpine start, and my crampons and ice axe were backpack ballast the whole route. Saw some amazing rockfall right above the tree line. The snow on the descent was mashed potatoes by 1:00. But I love the splitboard to make the comin' home part fun.
