Let's go back the bygone era where bumps were king. You know, the days where men were men, women were women, and you either learned to actually ski or were relegated to the greens with the children.

All hail Glen Plake.

I've also been able to start deadlifting (2 weeks ago) and squatting (last week) and it feels so good. Keeping the weight relatively l

Basically I'm looking for a shoe that provides confident grip on smooth rock above exposure (Class 3+) while providing reasonable comfort and traction running on mixed terrain (mud, loose gravel, etc) for 15+ mile days in the mountains. The La Sportiva Bushido look like a good option, just wondering if anyone has experience with that shoe or has other recommendations. I have a pair of Speedcross that I really like, but (perhaps predictably) it feels like they are trying to kill me on exposed terrain particularly with smooth rock.
