I call 45 pics. And, Muddy, Asolos are very popular out west for all around hiking, backpacking, and mountaineering. If not for my Danners (4 pair) and White's Smokejumpers (fire boots), I'd probably have gotten Asolos a long time ago. I actually spend more time in my White's these days than anything (except for all this damn snow), but Asolos are a great brand of boot.
