RE: Muck Boots vs Alpha Burly
Hey, I hunted in Newfoundland (note pic in my avatar) and bought Alpha-Burleys specifically for that hunt.
Yes, you will need them. Very soggy terrain that will soak other nonrubber type boots. I have no experience with the Muck boots.
I will say this about the Alpha-Burleys, the soles are a bit slippery when walking on wet rocks, wet tree limbs and wet logs. be careful crossing creeks.
Other than that, they are great for Newfoundland. Very comfortable for all that hiking you will be doing.
