Gem, remember me complaining so much on the Frozen Head trip this past spring about the 7 miles we did and how slow I was? That's why. My feet hurt so bad. Jerbear was so patient with me. I now know that it shouldn't ever be that bad after only 7 miles.

Those are it:
Asolos

yeah, I now know how both of you felt. I had blisters hiking mitchell, but nothing like I had this weekend. For some stupid reason none of the tape (not even the ducktape) seamed to stick for long.

dang wimpy feet!! LOL

The best way I've found to break in boots is to go and stand in a creek. Get them just as SOAKING wet as possible.
Then walk them dry.

When they are wet they are flexable. They form to your feet as they dry. Custom fit!

BTW, I still can't see the pics yet. :(

My pictures didnt turn out so well - I think I got some light in my camera or something. I cant wait to get my digital back from being repaired! I'll have them up soon. AND, there will be only pictures of Gemini since she only posted pictures of me:)

Hey! The important thing is that you guys got out and hiked!

I think the hikes that don't turn out like we expect them to always make for a more interesting experience anyway.

Thanks for sharing!

Fun trip! That sucks about the blisters!!! Hey gem, I've got Asolos and love'em.

These are mine... the 520s

I had an older pair I really liked, too, which was why I got a second pair when those were well worn.
