La Sportiva Halite GTX Hiking Boot - Men's

February 9, 2009

I think it's a bit lightweight for Kilimanjaro. Remember you'll encounter small snowfields @ elevations above 19,000 ft. in below freezing temps. I think this boot will work much better:http://www.backcountry.com/store/LSP0019/La-Sportiva-Glacier-Mountaineering-Boot-Mens.htmlDepends on the time of the year that you are going. I did Kilimanjaro last summer and there was no snow at all on the whiskey route so a full on mountaineering boot is overkill. I had the kayland contacts but these would have worked just as well for a summer climb with thick mountaineering socks and liners. The porters are carrying most of your gear so you don't need a super heavy boot.

Will this jacket work well for mountaineering? I am considering this jacket or the Cloudveil Koven. Thanks!
