What's the liner like on these? Are the full mitten, or do they have the index finger separate or something?

How does this compare to the Medusa Mitt functionally? I'm worried that the Masherbrum might be overkill. I'm buying these for use in Northern Sweden where it can get down to -40 degrees in the winter, so I need warm mitts but also need dexterity. Will the Medusa be enough?

Yes, there also is no separate, removable liner - just the mitten itself. When I anticipate needing to take my mitts on and off a bunch to fiddle with my gear, I just wear a lightweight liner glove underneath.

Anodos. The liner in the Masherbrum Mitt is a FULL mitten. It is not the crab claw style found in the Medusa Mitt. I hope this info helps!
