1. A ski boot cleaner comprising at least one elongated scraping member and a securing means to rigidly secure said scraping member to the shaft of a ski pole intermediate the handle and snow pad of said ski pole wherein said elongated scraping member is a flange extending radially outwardly from said securing means with said flange affixed to said securing means along the base of said flange and terminating at an outer edge and being substantially parallel to the axis of said shaft and wherein said securing means is an elongated channel formed by a housing having substantially cylindrical interior walls to cooperate with said shaft and substantially cylindrical outer walls, said housing having a slot therein extending in the same direction as the axis of said cylindrical interior walls thereby forming a pair of inwardly facing oppositely disposed resilient lips defined by said slot so that movement away from said shaft of said ski pole is resisted by the cooperation of said lips and said shaft.
