New or the old model?

Thanks, Dane. I was leaning toward intuition, but I found this link from AMH. It's interesting that while boots will get stiffer (harder for walking), but according to AMH, the fit gets worse for steeper terrain as well. http://www.alaskamountaineering.com/Info.cfm?id=66&d=3&c=185&s=0

So, I ponied up the money and got myself a pair of spantik and climbed 4 days so far in them in Vermont. They performed very well at moderate ice so far, never had cold feet (-10 temp). One of my goals this year is to do denali. I'm debating whether I should upgrade the liners to Intuition liner for weight and warmth. I got a couple of questions: 1. Sportiva rep doesn't have the weight of the liners, I'm wondering how much weight I'll save. 2. I heard conflicting information as to whether Spantik is warm enough for Denali or not. While I don't get cold feet, I rather stay on the conservative side. What's your opition? Thanks!

Mammut Laser is the softshell of my choice, from climbing to hiking to general around town. Expensive but worth the money.

Bump! Winter is here, willing to listen for offers.

I went up the Polish traverse side, all glacier water, not silty at all. My understanding is the Pen works very well. I met a guy in Istanbul who travel the entire africa using the pen and never got sick. I did hear if the water is really cold (glacier melt), the pen doesn't work as well.

Hey, Dane: I'm one of those people who has wide toebox and narrow heel, which sportiva never fit well. "Not the best pictures but trust me virtually same volume on both boots if not the Baruntse having the bigger volume toe box." "Old school laces on the Baruntse so you can crank on the outer boot and a simi- modern inner boot lace system still much easier to use and a much better fit for me (narrow heels) than the Spantik inner boot." Is this just from the photo or you actually felt the difference? I just might give Sportiva a chance if Baruntse fits me. BTW, how technical do you feel you can climb in those boots comfortably?

Great review Dane. Would you pick Fusion over Nomic? Looks like Nomic has a better total package.

Are they the newer model cobras?

I have seen them before. They also had master cams before.

If you can wait, rockandsnow.com runs gear of the week thingie with 25% off. Really good deal!

Cooking in EV2's "vestibule" is a pain since I used white gas stove. Never used a tenshi before. Since you are pretty much set on single wall, a bibler with vestibule should work pretty good for you.

Bump, Price Drop!
