Sorry if you have already read this post, I made the same post in the Gear Reviews forum with no success. I thought this might be a more suitable place to ask this question.
I am looking for a good pair of boots to take to the mountains on an elk hunt,they have to bereliable and comfortable. My feet tend to stay warm, so I am not looking for anything with a lot of insulation, maybe 400 grams of thinsulate at the most. I have heard people say I need a taller boot for ankle and calf support. If this is the case, would a 8 or 9" boot be sufficient? Thanks in advance for all the advice and input.
This is the boot that I am leaning towards, but haven't made up my mind quite yet. Since these boots are new, there really aren't many reviews on them.
