Never in a million years would I have thought I'd meet you on one of your big adventures. Last spring on Lake Ontario we met while I was walking my dog on a late morning in the east end of Toronto. What's even crazier was early that morning I was reading A History of Canada in Ten Maps.Great meeting you Adam.
Loving your content! Related to footwear protection…. I did a lot of backcountry traversing up and down gullies, hillsides with streams and boggy areas in South America. My feet also took a beating. Several pairs of boots were destroyed and none cut the muster until I found the Original Muck Boot company boots. Game changer! It’s like wearing an orthopedic cast. I could walk all day on the most treacherous terrain and feel nothing. The thick neoprene leg portion goes up to under knees and my feet stayed relatively dry even after a full day of stumbling on river stones, climbing over slippery logs, etc. Highly recommend for expeditions.
I have a few pairs of Muck Boots. I wore them on my 3,400 km journey from Lake Erie to the Arctic. They're great for that and as you said very comfortable, but I wouldn't recommend them for the Hudson Bay Lowlands: the water is too deep and will easily come over the tops of the boot. That's why I use the hip-waders.
