Great mittens, but not for small hands

They said on the glacier that "Nothing is waterproof on a glacier". But these mittens were! The only problem is the size, with or without liners, they are very roomy if your hands are small, like mine. They're also very stiff at first, so it was hard for me to do anything with my hands inside of these stiff baggy mitts. But they kept me dry and warm, and I could take them on and off quickly when I actually had to use my hands.
