Is this boot too much for a mountain like Rainier? Basically I am looking for a boot that I will be able to use at lower altitudes if needed. Thanks!

I was just guiding Rainier and a fellow guide was using this boot. For earlier, snowier and wetter season, it is a great boot. In later season with drier and warmer conditions, it might be too much. But if you have cold feet than go for.
