My battle with snow continues. Yesterday, I decided to use my leather casual shoes that I weat to work for my hike. It has a thicker sole than my winter boots and is probably warmer too. The only downside I figured was that I would get plenty of snow in my socks if I were to walk in deep snow. Well, I did not have to walk in deep snow fortunately, except for a couple of times. While no snow got into my shoes or socks, I was standing in the snow long enough that my shoes started to get wet. Lo and behold, I started feeling the dampness of it.
It makes a world of a difference when your feet are dry and warm versus wet and cold. You would enjoy the hike and taking photographs much more.
So, I do not have any footwear suitable for hiking in a wet environment but before my next excursion, I will get a new pair of winter hiking boots, possibly those ones below from
Sears.
