Planning to wear hip waders with socks attached, if needed to cross water that goes over knee rubber boots then my understanding is you take the boots off and cross wearing just the socks?
That leads me to ask the question to everyone here... what's your go-to rubber/waterproof knee boot for Alaska? I've used Mucks and they're very comfy for hiking in the midwest deer hunting, keep me warm. But that upper "cloth" type layer tends to tear it seems and lowers the waterproofness from knee high to however high the tear is. I've heard good things about the Xtra Tuff but they're nowhere to be found near Omaha, NE to try on.
