OR Arete Glove

Ranked #1849 - Ski Gloves

I wore this at about 5200m on the way to Imja Tse (or Island Peak) in Nepal end Sep 07. We set off at around 3am from Base Camp and my fingers began to freeze! I find mitts cumbersome but decided to change to the Cornice Mitt which is much much warmer. However, the Arete liner is useful as a pair of glove to put on for very short trek.
