My Mom came by the house today and I noticed her footprints in the snow after she left. This little old lady with bad eyes and osteoporosis was trudging around in rubber soled shoes with out any tread at all!! On ice! And snow!
She was telling my b/f that she wants to buy crampons for walking in the woods (she doesn't really do any uphill or challenging hikes). I went right to Sierra Trading Post dot com and got her a pair of Solomon snow clogs! Cheap! $36. I spent like $80 on mine four years ago. Best shoes ever. Now I can stop worrying about her falling and hurting herself.
