OK, no such thing as waterproof. I'm talking about the Goretex type of water resistant boot. What is the general thought of using 'waterproof' boots on the trail? The Goretex keeps the water out for a while, but I also understand that it then slows down drying, which can play havoc with your feet. The bottom line is, your feet are going to get wet, so I'm thinking it would be better to have boots that aren't waterproof so they will dry out faster. Any thoughts?
