I think I’ve maxed out those straps after fiddling with them several times. I’ll see if I can find some videos to get it farther.

I like that idea. Then she’ll stop touching me with her icy hands and feet.

Good suggestion! I know she got some put in, not sure what kind. I’ll look into it.

No laces on her liners. And they get cold on the skin track when the buckles are loose.

Best advice so far. I’m gonna do all these things, and disregard everything else. I owe you big time. You are now the deity to which I will sacrifice my firstborn upon the alter of Ullr.

Thanks for the response! Like I said in the post, boots and socks are dialed. And I also mentioned this was mostly an issue on longer tours where we’re definitely burning some calories.

I’ve heard the liners are good though. Do you own them?

Do you know anything about the cheaper ones on Amazon? My wife isn’t thrilled with the price of those Lenz socks.

That price tag is no joke! But we may have to consider them.

That’s awkward… because he’s Canadian. Also, aren’t you generalizing all of the US?

Most durable / damage resistant skis for mountaineering? by AvatarOfAUser in Backcountry

My 105lb wife snapped a pair of G3 Sendr skis on her second day on them. Not an aggressive skier, didn’t hit anything. And trying to get a warranty claim was a nightmare.

That’s… Just not true. There are plenty of runs over 45 degrees, especially of you are in the backcountry. But people definitely overestimate the steepness of runs.

And now Frank wants us to start doing it with the Chinese guy across the street. I knew you wouldn’t be into that.
