Thats a good idea. Its worth trying on my Meindl's. They look like they're years old already. The liners are much thinner than they were..
I daren't go near them at the moment though, they're a biohazard.

The parka was great, although not required for much of the time, it just wasn't cold enough unless it was for sitting around in.
The snow goggles work, but do restrict the field of vision compared to glasses.
Excellent thread , I've been following it since the planning stages. Oh to be young again. Thanks for the vicarious thrills and the pics. I love the enthusiasm and positive vibes that come through in the posts.
Possibly wolverine.
Did anyone find a use for a multitool or a SAK? Mine stayed in the bottom of my rucksack.
No need for the pen knife, only my snowshoes need small pliers for the clevis pins and repair bolts.
My (original) Leatherman got used once, to make the pot hanging chain for our campfire, otherwise it stayed in the bag. My fixed blade and the axe got the most business.
And I'd add my heavy wool Swedish army ski trousers to the list of things that worked brilliantly!

OK guys, a little taster for the weekend.
This was our last night before catching the plane.
Very nice Gary, but as someone who works in a live news environment, I can't help thinking that you're a week late and have missed the moment.
This thread has run its course, it's time to move on.
That's why I'll be starting a new thread when I've had a chance to sort through the 1000+ shots I have so watch this space.
