Cell Phone Camera to Blog in Seconds! This is great!

My new boots, Black Diamond Factor! I’m super excited about these boots from the big mountain to the park to the long backcountry days, these should suffice. I have been a Tecnica guy for a lot of years. My last boots were the Icon Alu. The BD Factors seem to be a tiny bit lower on the calf, like a 1/2 inch, and nearly as stiff if that gives you any idea of how the boot feels. The liner is also really tight around my achelies and the boot is fairly low profile over the top of the foot. That is with the foot beds in. I am getting them fitted to my feet by a pro tomorrow. A word of advice. Spend good money on getting boots to fit well. My Tecnica’s were like slippers. I’ll report on how these boots fair over this 08/09 season.
