This was amazing packing snow! Just look at the pile collected on my foot. Both feet were collecting snow like crazy. Every few feet I'd have to stop and try to scrape it all off, just to continue the process a few minutes later. I now know what it feels like to be six feet and also a bit of what those poor Chinese women who had their feet wrapped felt like. I almost broke my ankles 100 times and my neck 3 or 4! I think these shoes will be put in hibernation until the snow passes.
