Choose the Best Backpacking Boots

!: Choose the Best Backpacking Boots

Anyone who has ever backpacked knows all too well that choosing the wrong boot is a very bad thing.  Your boots are about as important as your backpack. They can make or break your trip.  Backpacking is about hiking and walking and everyone knows that when your shoes don't fit you can't enjoy even a simple walk. 

A bad boot choice can lead to discomfort, injury and possible end your trip all together.  Choosing the right boot is essential to making sure your backpacking trip is a good experience.

There is not one single type of boot that is the best.  Every person has to find their own best because we do not all have the same needs.  It is up to you to find that one boot type that is your best, but by learning what to look for you can find your best boot easily.

The following explains things to consider and look for so you can choose the best boot for you:

- Your usage requirements.  You need to think about how often you backpack and where you backpack .  Know how you will use the boots and then talk to a salesperson and research boots that are good for your intended usage.

- Try some on.  The selection of boots is a process.  It should take a little while.  Do not settle on the first pair you try.  Never just slip them on and if your foot goes in consider them good. 

- Wear the socks you normally wear when hiking. 

- Put them all the way on, laced up, too.  You want them to be snug, but not too tight.  You should be able to put two fingers in at the heel. 

- Walk around the store and note every detail about how they feel.  Try to walk up a step, if possible.  If available, try walking with a loaded backpack.  Make sure they do not rub or pinch at all. 

- Try on a variety of boots even if you come across one you think is perfect. 

Once you are sure you've found your best pair - buy them.  Once you've bought your boots you can waterproof them and get ready to go backpacking.

Mountain Hiking Tips, Mountain Trekking Gear & Equipment Hints

!: Mountain Hiking Tips, Mountain Trekking Gear & Equipment Hints

Mountain hiking demands great gear and more education than your typical trail hike. Why? Because as you ascend breathing becomes less efficient, passage grows rugged, and rescue becomes more challenging. So consider your mountain equipment to be your life support system.

Where in day hiking you may be able to get away with wearing light-weight boots or shoes, in remote mountain hiking it's a good idea to wear heavier supportive boots to protect your ankles and feet. Walking with a sprained ankle on a day hike is inconvenient compared to trying to limp out of the back-country mountains with the same problem and a heavy pack. Thinking ahead and being prepared with the right mountain gear, guides, and information can literally mean the difference between a minor mishap and at times death. Take your safety seriously.

As elevation increases the atmospheric pressure decreases (amount of oxygen doesn't actually drop until over 50,000 feet) which means there's less pressure to 'push' the air into and fill your lungs. Because there is less air going into your lungs you'll fatigue more quickly. How much does the pressure really change? According to an academiclibrary.com article (that can be applied to mountain hiking) the barometric pressure can drop by 40% between sea level (average 760 millimeters of mercury) and 12,000 feet (483 millimeters of mercury). Obviously having 40% less oxygen available to your body (because of the pressure drop) will impact you.

Now if you had a 40% decrease in your ability to deliver oxygen to your body during an average day wouldn't you be concerned? Add in the fact you're asking more of your body in terms of keeping you warm in a cooler/cold environment, you are constantly losing water from your system, your reactions are slowed, and your not around the corner from the nearest hospital. Your mountain hiking equipment becomes a more important consideration the higher the altitude and the more remote your location.

Depending on how cold the temperatures you might encounter are you'll probably want some good insulated hiking boots (depending on the altitude and temperature you may need mountaineering boots), hiking clothes, sleeping bags, camping tents, and other equipment used for hiking rated for lower temperature than what you think you'll actually experience. This will give you an extra margin of safety. Also keep in mind that mildly uncomfortable mountain hiking gear will become a bigger problem...
