Asking for a friend (Honest!) - who asked which boots I would recommend for a summer ascent of Mont Banc?
I climbed it in the 80s in a pair of Koflach Viva plastic boots, and again in the 90s in Nepal Extremes, so I don't think I'm really in a position to recommend from experience.
I'm thinking the Nepal Extremes are a overkill, and that modern boots and thinking will be lighter (and cheaper?)
What would the modern day alpinist recommend?
