    Cold wet feet!

    Good one! I just bought new boots and my bootfitter sized me down a half size for that reason and the fact that my old boots were just too big but the problem persists. Already wear thin silk socks and found that the foot antiperspirants keep them dry but still get cold. Thanks for the input!

    How do you keep your feet dry and warm?

    Good ideas, drjeff, I will give those a try. If I am lucky it will work and I won't need a boot dryer. Thanks for the suggestion, AZ'ers!

    How far away is the closest ski area to you?

    Are we neighbors? 13 miles to Blue Hills from home for me too! 15 miles to my home hill, Sugarloaf, from Kingfield. Someday I hope to eliminate the 239 miles in between home and home sweet home.
