Depends on the weather and what elevation you plan on hunting. I hunt 3-6k here in Montana and it was so warm (above freezing) that I was able to hunt the entire season in my Teva sandals and one layer of clothing (+ long underwear). Those Tevas are so light I can hike in them all day without my quads getting sore and they are deadly quiet

BTW - finally got an elk on the second to the last day (cow). Took 150 hours and ~100 miles!
