La Sportiva Glacier Hiking Boot

Submitted by on Tuesday, 3 February 2009No Comment

This is the boot we’ve been asking for since the day we saw our first pair of newmatic crampons. The Glacier is designed to handle any terrain you might encounter on a weekend outing in the mountains. With a little more flex and rocker than the Makalu, it handles a heavy pack with ease. If the trail takes you onto a glacier or you encounter a snowfield through a high mountain pass you can slap on your newmatic crampons in seconds and travel with confidence. The Glacier will even feel at home in easy mountaineering situations and can climb alpine ice comfortably. The Ice-New sole was designed in collaboration with Vibram® just for the Glacier. The perfect boot for backpackers that want crampon compatibility but probably just need a solid heavy duty backpacking boot.

If you like rock climbing, you know it's a sport where you can get both a full body workout and still have fun, who could ask for more than indoor rock climbing? This intense sport has managed to pick up more momentum every year, and with good reason. Whether you're the outdoorsy type, or prefer to keep yourself out of the weather and indoors, indoor rock climbing provides an available sport to you. With outdoor mountains being almost unlimited and more indoor rock climbing centers being created each year, you have the option of either one! Also with technology in rock climbing wall you never have to worry about the weather ruining your daily rock climbing gyms fix. Not much is more rewarding then starting at the bottom and climbing your way to the top, in life and with rock wall climbing, and by taking part in rock climbing you can do just that.
