Much more of a structure and geomorph guy. Now it's all hydrology, hydrogeology, and some structure.<br /><br />Dominic - I'd love to get up Baldy sometime soon; sweet that it's runnable virtually year-round.<br /><br />Tom - For winter running on the local steep trails it's all about <a href="http://www.kahtoola.com/microspikes.php" rel="nofollow">Kahtoola Microspikes</a>. Before moving to Boulder I would just occasionally put some sheet metal screws in my shoes and was highly skeptical of factory traction devices but the steep trails here make screws almost worthless most of the time. Yaktrax are also worthless on the terrain I run, not to mention will usually break the first time out. Microspikes are incredible on packed snow and ice--seriously magic grip--and highly durable. Also, I typically run 1+ mile of streets before getting to trails, so it's nice to be able to take the traction off and on, unlike the permanence of screws or hobnails. Seriously, the winter running I do wouldn't be possible without Microspikes. <br /><br />Depending on snow levels this winter, I'll probably be looking into Kahtoola's KTS running crampons, too. But those are for the really steep and deep stuff.Antonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11148317903654491236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-451222917425507533.post-34720368411104287432011-10-24T12:47:38.909-06:002011-10-24T12:47:38.909-06:00can't really imagine running/hiking through so...can't really imagine running/hiking through so much pain.

Baldy, a 6.4 mi climb 5800 ft up (except Mt. Baldy is only 10,050 ft).
