Women's hiking boots can take you to new heights

Dance with the Mountain

My rule is, off the summit by noon.  Unfortunately rules
are made to be broken, and I've found myself
scrambling off the top of a few of Colorado's fourteen
thousand foot peaks as the clouds swarm in and the
sky explodes, well after noon.   Although it may not be
fun running for tree line with a full pack through ankle
twisting scree and snowfields, it's definitely an
adventure. 
 We've seen people move from full hiking boots to the
shorter hiking shoe for their hiking endeavors, and
while a shorter, more cushioned shoe sounds good if
you have to run down from a summit, the full hiking
boot gives ankle support, and a solid platform to stand
on.  Certainly the hiking shoe has its place, it's the
champ for short local hikes.  But you'll find me with my
tall, full support hiking boots on all my mountain
adventures.You can dance with the mountain, but the mountain always leads.
