Suggest mid-size boots, over the ankle;  I bought Asolo, an Italian boot
bought in the U.S.;  Try to keep under 20#, 15# is better -  go for a light weight
back pack & include the weight of 2 small plastic water bottles.  Waterproof
boots or Gortex are your choice, but not necessary in my opinion.  Good socks
are more important.  Get a lite weight fast drying camping towel.  Only 1
change of clothes is necessary.  Wash clothes every nite.  Howard Mendes, NYC
