how long do these take to break in, and h would these be considered overkill for semi technical dry routes on 14ers??

No break-in time required for mine. Very comfortable for summer snow climbs, including long approaches, and good on rock so they should perform well in your scenario. That said, I would personally wear something less stiff (and less expensive).

Great boot for a simi technical route on a dry 14K. The weight of the boot and support make them fun to walk or climb in. This is a stiff hiking boot ;-) It is nto a full on 3 season mountaineering boot.

These would be overkill for dry 14ers. If you're backpacking go with stiff hiking boots. If you're not backpacking then some mid-range hiking boots would be plenty.
