[QUOTE="mellor_21, post: 11983766, member: 76429"] Cliffs - Need a good pair of hiking boots for extreme slopes Hey all, Time for new boots! My last pair (La Sportiva) wore out after about 8 months of heavy use. They were pretty good, but I have the spare cash right now and want to try something different. I'm a seismic driller. I work 7 days a week hiking a straight line through whatever terrain is in the way in all types of weather. At the moment, we're doing about 5 miles a day on extremely steep slopes covered in loose rocks (currently PA) with a ~40 lb backpack. I need a pair that are waterproof, have great traction, even in the rain, are comfortable, and can handle the stresses of 60+ degree slopes for months on end. My last pair saw a low of -37 F in ND and today got their high of ~98 F. I've been looking at Zamberlan 760's, but I can't really tell the difference between marketing hype and reality. Since SVTP'ers know everything about everything.. can anyone help me out? Or, if you know a good mountain climbing forum, I'd love to check that out. Let me know if you need any more info. [/QUOTE]
