[pct-l] yaktrax as crampon replacement

[Jim Ostdick]

These doo-hickies might provide stability while shoveling a level driveway,
but they are pretty worthless on a snowy or icy slope. I tried them out on a
day hike several years ago...they came off about every other step til I
crammed them back in my pack (expletives deleted)...woulda made a good
U-Tube spoof!
