Yaktrax For Walking On Icy Surfaces

A couple of days ago I purchased a pair of Yaktrax at our local hardware store, to pull over my kamik winter boots.  They give excellent traction in the ice and snow.  I feel so much safer now that I have them. 

I had been slipping and sliding on my deck, when I was walking outside to get firewood.  It's so easy to hit a patch of ice  and fall.  You really have to be careful, especially as you get older.   

It's always exciting to find something that makes life easier, and helps you to feel safer.  Have any of you ever tried Yaktrax?  A couple of the men that I see on my morning walks with Lula recommended them.
