Is this overkill for Aconcagua and Denali?
I have and love my Vasque Radiators, but I am not sure they would be warm enough for Aconcagua and Denali. Thus I am thinking about the Millets. I wonder if they are too warm and bulky for my purpose. Thanks.

AAI DENALI EQUIPMENT CHECKLIST High Altitude/Cold Weather Mountaineering Boots:Double boots are required. They should be designed for extended use intemperatures at least as cold as -40F. Modern synthetic integrated boots (those witha built in overboot/gaiter) are suitable for this climb. For traditional plastic boots,thermo-mold liners are warmer, lighter, and more comfortable than standard liners. If you have heat-moldable liners in your boots already and you have worn them forseveral trips, you may want to have them re-fit to ensure that the foam has notcompressed and the temperature rating has been retained. Shell Materials: Synthetic, plasticLiner: Thermo-moldable or High Altitude models Examples Include: Kayland 8001, La Sportiva Olympus Mons, Lowa CivettaExtreme, Scarpa Phantom 8000 and Inverno, and Millet Everest.

I would not think so, Denali is normally colder then Everest anyway.
