Hi Happycat, It's not good if your heels move around in the boots as it becomes difficult to initiate your toe side turns due to your heels lifting. The fit should be snug to tight all around your foot as the liner will pack out as you use the boots ensuring a comfortable fit. If you talk to a good boot fitter or sales person they may have some suggestions about how to reduce the amount of heel movement.

I've spent 3 months at blackcomb whistler and would recommend it to anyone. The 2 mountains rock with the number of runs and the variety of terrain. Also you can't beat the amount of vertical avaiable (approx 5,500ft). The lift lines are generally quite small as well. The village is outstanding and has some great restaurents, bars and nightclubs.
