52 weeks of Trail Madness: Death of my Yaktrax!

Death of my Yaktrax!

These babies are relatively new. I believe they have seen only 3 runs. What is wrong with me? This is my THIRD pair!!!!

I am beginning to believe these are not meant for me. Time to move on to something else.
On the plus side, I did enjoy a nice chat with a friendly horse on todays run!

I'm a Northern Idaho neighbor.... we get a bit more snow and ice here....I decided to splurge on some Kahtoolah Microspikes and it was the best winter running investment that I've ever made. I've taken them out several times on solid sheets of ice and never have even come close to slipping. They are much more durable than Yak Trax (3 pairs of them would be less than the cost of the spikes).
