I got a bunch of suggestions in Seatle of where to find a boot fitter, but if we could find one in Hood River or Portland that would be sick. It would be helpful to know if they are fitting boots at this time of the year too.

Also I'll be up Timberline tomorrow (Thursday) basically by my self if anyone wants to join in. I'm only going up if the top part is open.

Then Sunday/Monday I will really be driving up by my self and i can give rides to and from hood river.

I ended up going to bob's before i even read read the responses. definitely suggest visiting him if any of you have any issues with any of your boots. he charged me $10 a spot to punch out some of my spots. with was $40, and now they are perfect.

other issue. Im going to hood from hood rivier sunday and monday, if any one wants to take me (gas money), or any one wants to be taken by me (no gas money, im going anyway)
