I am looing for a new boot. It will be a multi-pupose boot for mixed conditions. I am trying to find a semi automatic crampon compatable boot that is as flexable, light and "foot friendly" as possible....riding the line between a mountian boot and heavy hiker. I have a pair La Sportiva Trango EXT Light GTX that are nice and light but too stiff for long approaches and treks. I have a pair of LS Glaciers that are heavy and bulky.
I am looking at the Salewa Rapace, Garmont Vetta Mnt Plus GTX and the Millet Grepon GTX.
Any thought would be great Thanks
