Hi there,
I have a trip to mount Elbrus in this summer. The tour travel agent request we need Plastic boots or crampon-compatible heavy leather mountaineering boots. Does this shoes "La Sportiva Glacier Boot - Women's " can fit for trek and climb at Mount Elbrus? Does anyone was long trekking on ice and Glacier? got wet from ice?
Thanks for any feedback !!
Catherine

Catherine, it is going to cost you more money but I would go with the Nepal EVO for your intended climb. They are warmer boots and give you more choices of crampons. Another option is the Scara Mont Blanc GTX which is comparable to the Nepal EVO. http://www.backcountry.com/la-sportiva-nepal-evo-gtx-mountaineering-boot-womens
