I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Description

Why We Like The Salewa Alp Trainer 2 GTX Hiking Shoe

Built for rugged alpine use, the Salewa Alp Trainer 2 GTX hiking shoe checks all the boxes for a hardcore hiking shoe. The suede leather provides solid foot protection and abrasion resistance while the rubber rand circles the shoe for added durability and edging in rocks, talus, and scree.

The Alp Trainer excels on rocky terrain with the rubber rand, climbing laces, and Vibram Alpine Hiking outsoles each designed for rock scrambling and more technical trails. Even if the snow has melted off our favorite Alp or 14er, the GORE-TEX Extended Comfort membrane provides waterproof and breathable weather protection to keep us hiking comfortably on soggy or slushy trails.
