Anyone done a traverse of the N, Middle and S sister? If so is there a trip report out there for it? I've been looking for one and haven't been able to find one thus far.

How much glissading is there? Did you ever use your crampons or did decent hiking boots suffice?

Boots for Climbing

I've done Adams a couple of times, both in leather boots (Danner gortex), they weren't ideal but did the trick. The first time I went up Adams two of the guys in my group went up in running shoes. It was abnormally warm and most of the snow was melted off that year. I would NOT recommend doing that but it worked for them. I think that the boots that you have should work great (if they will work with your crampons that is). I just picked up a pair of Asolo boots from REI: http://www.rei.com/product/694262/asolo-tps-535-hiking-boots-mens and that is what I'll be taking up Adams this year.
