I ski with Berghaus Yeti over-boot gaiters over my Alaska boots and will put them on the Guide as well. Totally sealed and my greedy little boots will be as dry as the desert that is the inside of my wallet!Musk Ox wrote: ↑Thu Oct 31, 2024 11:26 amI haven't toured with the Expeditions so I can't actually say what they're like. The comfort of both is going to be the same down at the business end where your feeties are, and there's nothing wrong with having a few layers of leather strapped around your calves... and gaiters aren't going to be mandatory.... The Guides are adequate for me in deep snow for a few nights out with a load in gaiters, I can certainly say that. I'm not sure what I'd go for if I was doing ten nights in Greenland, for example.randoskier wrote: ↑Wed Oct 30, 2024 5:18 pmThanks Ox, I think the Guide fits the bill for me, more interested in long distance touring comfort.

Cross-country AND down-hill skiing in the backcountry.
Unashamed to be a "cross-country type" and love skiing down-hill.
