What:

La Sportiva Olympus Mons
EVO mountaineering boots

Mario Locatelli of Hamilton MT has agreed to keep only half the proceeds of the sale of his boots.

They are the finest mountaineering boots available, retail for $900, and have never been used or worn.
They are double boots with a built in gaiter, the warmest money can buy. These boots are USA men’s size 9, or size 42 in Euro-speak. The buyer could work with their local mountaineering store that sells La Sportiva products to have the inner boots custom fitted.

Mario summited Denali at age 71, and held the record for oldest until a Japanese climber broke the record. He considered another attempt, and purchased new gear including these boots, but prudently decided to call it good.

Contact Mario’s daughter Cathy at cathy@mtlandcompany.com or write to Mario at 165 Mountain Goat Road, Hamilton, MT 59840 or cal him at 406-363-1262.

When you have agreed upon a purchase price with Mario, mail half the amount to Mario and the other tax deductible half to the Foundation.
