how should this generally be sized? i'm female, normally i wear a small in mittens. should i go extra small? or does this run kinda tight? (i'd probably still wear a liner mitten on summit day) thinking about using this for kili, maybe denali someday.

small-----------I would get the size that you normally wear. Also, for even colder conditions that you may encounter on Denali you might consider the Masherbrum Mitts from Hardwear as well. They are not as weather protective as the Absolute Zero Mitt but they have 3x more insulation. Have Fun!
