Cold Feet
Re: Cold Feet
Wool socks. Wool doesn't lose its insulating properties even when wet. I usually wear soft rubber muck boots too when I'm on my yak.

Re: Cold Feet
Since I grew big balls I never get cold feet!
Re: Cold Feet
Do so-called waterproof socks or shoes keep your feet dry?
Re: Cold Feet
I wear tall rubber boots on my yak. If you are worried about warmth wear wool socks, which retain insulation even when wet.

Re: Cold Feet
I have not used them in a while and not even sure I can find them. I found neoprene boots helped.

Re: Cold Feet
Thanks. I think I will pack wool socks. I don't want to let cold feet ruin a good trip.

Re: RE: Re: Cold Feet
I also recommend wool socks, but only if I know I can keep them dry. For those trips that I'll be walking in the water or will have wet shoes, you can't beat neoprene socks! Only like $13 and they will keep your feet warm and dry.beekeeper wrote:Thanks. I think I will pack wool socks. I don't want to let cold feet ruin a good trip.

Larry! Long time. I've got to admit that I'm having trouble remembering which burnt shoe incident you are referring to. It happens to me so often I've been wanting to hit up the Colorado again. We talk about doing it all the time, but life keeps getting in the way. Hope all is well.larry long shadows wrote: said the man who burned his shoes on camp fire ...man, where you been, haven't seen you post in alone time
Since Larry brought up burnt shoes, I thought I would mention that is also a way to deal with cold feet. Just catch your shoes on fire. Works every time.
