Howdy, I am again going to be in the Antarctic this next fall, and am 
looking for a recommendation for mountaineering boots that will allow me to 
use crampons and be warm. I have been researching websites for the double 
boots, such as Montrail 9000 ($500) and am more concerned that the 
salesmanship of the companies are only telling me that their boots are 
best!! then that the boots will keep your feet warm. anybody out here got a 
mountaineering friend who can offer advice? thanks
