Get your hands on em.

I'm constantly changing over from skinning to skiing to filming and my hands get exposed and cold. It's nice to throw the Guides on and know my hands will warm right up. They have been my glove of choice for the past 2 seasons on the local slopes and distant expeditions. The long gauntlet style keeps the snow out and the leather gives good grip on poles, rock, rope and whatever I can get my hands on.

Whoa! A review from a few of the PW boys! Considering what y'all must put the gloves through, that's a strong endorsement. I'm looking to replace some Marmot gloves that have seen too many seasons; seems like the BD Guides would be an excellent choice.
