Does this mean there is no boot fitter for 365 miles from where you ski or where you live?

If you have to travel to go skiing, i'd say your best bet is wait until you go on your ski trip and go to a local boot fitter where ever that is.

This.

Also, you could consider going to a ski shop. Even if there is not a professional bootfitter there, ski shop employees are capable of getting you fit with good boots, it just isn't ideal if there is a professional bootfitter available.

haha i knew you were from fairbanks just by the thread title. Go to beaver, as garbage as it is, and ask for cassidy if she isnt already the first person to help you. i dont think all the boots are on display yet but you can at least try some different ones on and see how they feel.

If you are looking to mold do the heated bean sock (usually used for back pain) in side of boot thing
