A Question about La Sportiva Spantik Mountaineering Boot - Men's

By duerrmd2340806 on August 4, 2008

i am planning to hike mt. aconcagua in december and would like a boot to accomodate that climb as well as future high altitude mountaineering journeys (i.e. denali, himalayas). is this a good boot for most like journeys? is it too much boot for aconcagua and not enough for the others? i have also been looking at the lowa civetta extreme. the boots feel comfortable but the one thing that continues to pop up in reviews is that users say they do not provide enough warmth for higher hikes/climbs. any suggestions are greatly appreciated. thanks!
