3 buddies and I are doing a drop in caribou hunt in the Brooks Range through BRA this year, Aug 16-27. Think we're pretty well set otherwise, but I still have one main question and that relates to waders or boots.
If we'd just be doing a few water crossings a day, I think the Wiggy's waders would be the best option to just throw on over my regular boots when necessary. However, if we're more likely to be slogging through water most of the day, or the terrain is such that the Wiggy's wouldn't hold up for a week plus, I'd probably go with a pair of breathable stocking foot waders and wader boots. I've found a few threads on this, but hoped some of you that are familiar with the area and have hunted it before could chime in with your specific recommendations.
Thanks in advance for your time.
