Good mild weather mountaineering boots

I really like these boots. I am generally pretty tough on my gear and these boots can really stand up to whatever you hand them. Great for slightly technical summit attempts where some good edging will be involved. Take crampons very well because of the shank. Did great on mixed rock ascents, as well as a long couloir with crampons. My only complaint which is more of operator error than manufacturer fault is that they are not very well insulated. If you are expecting cold weather make sure you wear heavy socks. These boots are great for Spring, Summer, and Fall asecnts. For winter however I might recommend something heavier.
