My turn to ask for advice--
All of my experience has been with back country/mountain boots. I have no clue with rubber boots.
I am headed for a hunt up north this October and it will be cold/wet/boggy the whole time. I need a pair of tall, 1200-2000 gram insulated rubber boots.
Anyone from Alaska or up north have boot recommendations for a hunt that will be wet/boggy and require some modest (mostly flat terrain) hiking too? My feet are E width, narrow heel, low instep. I am concerned about getting boots that heel slip and don't hold my foot well.
Also, for those that have experience in damp/cold camping, how do you dry your boots at night so they don't get more and more soaked after a couple days? I will be in the wilderness w/o access to Peets boot drier, etc.
Appreciate any help/insight.
Best,
JL
