Ranked #589 - Mittens
January 30, 2009
Recently climbed Aconcagua and was lucky to have great weather. On summit morning it was 7 degrees (F) above zero with a wind chill somewhere below that. My hands never got cold and as the sun came up and we reached the mid point of 21,000 ' I changed to my standard ski gloves. On Aconcagua though it is better to be safe than sorry. These are great Mittens and the folks at OR are great to work with.
