Denali - Ski Boot Help
Posted: Tue Nov 19, 2019 5:18 pmHello,
I plan to climb Denali this June, we are bringing skis to 14camp, still undecided if we'll bring them higer and ski the Orient.
I've been seeing recommendations of buying a full shell size larger in the ski boots to allow for feet to swell at altitude. Would anyone recommend this? Seems like a waste as they won't fit here in Colorado and I will not be able to use them after this trip. Same problem with the overboots. With a full shell size larger, do people get the Intuition liners a full size larger too? I am normally a size 26 in ski boots.
Any specific recommendations on ski boots? La Sportiva has a sale right now so I'm looking at the Spectre
thanks!
