Featured Black Diamond Ski Boot – Seeker Telemark. Click on the image below to check’em out at Backcountry.com!
Black Diamond designed the 100 flex Men’s Seeker Telemark Ski Boot for backcountry powder hunters who want a lightweight, easy touring boot that delivers responsive, efficient power transmission when tackling untracked descents. This boot begins with a Pebax Triax-Tour frame that offers an ideal balance of stiff support and forgiving flex. The Seeker’s three buckle design and MidStiff bellows provide uphill efficiency without sacrificing high-performance downhill capabilities. Black Diamond gave this boot a mechanically integrated ski/walk mode and three setting covering eight degrees of forward lean to suit your skiing style and stance. The thermo-moldable, high performance Strobel liner features the Boa closure system for increased fit and on the fly adjustability. Use this boot with both 75mm and three-pin tele binders.
Bottom Line: Seek and you shall find deep pow stashes.

Oh I know, I know!!
You are unfortunately disqualified my dear, even though you have a cute little daughter.
What I want to know is why don’t they make suits like that anymore? I mean a suit you can climb and ski in.
Quite natty, eh? The hat looks like it would stay on in a light breeze as well.
So Charlie, were you able to figure this clue out? I’m trying to make the front end clues a bit harder as people have time to research them.
Got the clue (Wikipedia just rocks), but I’m hoping having TWO little girls doesn’t disqualify me.
Good job Steve! You are only disqualified if you happen to have two little girls AND we are married, so I think you’re safe. :)
I’m getting excited….2 more clues and those boots are mine!
Andrew, I didn’t know much about the suit but it wasn’t too hard to find the answer. However, I do have a degree in geography. ;-)
Damn you Charles Ziskin! Tomorrow’s clue will be harder. In the meantime, abuse your brain cells a bit more.
Interesting. Without looking up precise lat and longt it looks like the answer does not sit precisely in the territory described in the answer to the previous clue…
Oh, that’s a given!
Hi rsireland3 – It’s close, but it does fall within the zone described in clue #2, at least according to my map.
Just to be clear, the abuse of my brain cells is what’s a given. ;-)
A la’ Jeopardy; Who it Lincoln Ellsworth??
Just checking to see if I’m entered… never have seen my first reply.
Hi drock – all systems go.
Hmmmm… Andrew, maybe we have different maps? :lol: Like I said, it isn’t precisely in the region. It is only there on one of three counts. So perhaps I took clue #2 more precisely than you intended.
