  • Stomping Grounds:

    Colorado 14ers, the Incline, Red Rocks Open Space
  • Bio:

    I'm a Christian, a teacher, and love the outdoors. I moved to Colorado from Oklahaoma five years ago, for all the great stuff the state has to offer. I'm up for anything new and exciting, and am climbing all of the Colorado 14ers (31 so far), and shooting for 3 of the "Seven Summits". I also ski when I can. My most exciting hikes have been Kelso Ridge, Lindsey N/W face, the ridge route on Ellingwood Point, and Pike's Peak (solo) up from the Incline and back down via the Crags (well, I didn't actually come out at the Crags, but that's what made it exciting...) Next year I plan to hike Rainier. I'm learning to climb, and this winter I'm going to try ice climbing for the first time.

Good deal, maybe need to break in first.

La Sportiva Glacier Mountaineering Boot - Women's

La Sportiva Glacier Mountaineering Boot - Women's

Rating for this product: 4 November 10, 2008

I took these on a 10 mile soft snow/some ice hike up two 14ers in Colorado. They are made to work well with neumatic crampons, which I had to buy at a local outdoors store (REI didn't have enough of a selection in stock) in order to get a pair that fit my smaller (women's 8) feet without hacksawing them. I didn't actually use the crampons with them yet, but they will work well when I do.

They gave my feet several blisters half-way into the hike, which doesn't typically happen with my other hiking shoes (I don't usually use actual high top hiking boots, in summer months). I think it would've been helpful to break them in before hand, and/or to tape my toes before hiking in them, to prevent hot spots.

These fit true to size - I ordered a size 39 and I normally wear a women's 8.
