[QUOTE="FrogFire7, post: 1551546, member: 101482"] So I haven't been west for elk before , this year will be the first. Going to backpack in a ways and hunt 2nd rifle. What about boots?? I'm sure this a "it depends" question/answer. For 2nd rifle, do you guys generally wear uninsulated? I have zero experience but it sounds like it will be quite a bit of walking/stalking. Planning on having my pack on my back, but will have a base camp set up, so I shouldn't have a ton of weight in my pack most of the time. Insulated? What weight insulation? Non insulated? I'm sure it depends on the person too to an extent. I'm planning to hunt somewhere in the vicintity of Steamboat Springs, if that helps. I also plan on merino socks with a liner if necessary. I'm sure everyone has their own opinion on brand, but feel free to throw those out there as well if you want. I'm eyeing up Kenetrek, thought about Schnee Beartooth. Not really sure what I'm doing since I've not needed mountain boots before. [/QUOTE]
