I usually like a little ankle support in the back country. Lots of rocks back there to step on. But otherwise those shoes look great and I agree with Charlie about keeping weight down, including and especially on the feet.
Break them fully in first, and still pack moleskin and scissors.
Buildings have stairs. Which can be used for training. Hiking up a grade is a completely different animal from flat ground. In terms of cardio and muscle burn.
Budget more than six hours for ten miles, I say. But I suppose it depends. I am old. I once saw three young people run to the top of Mr. Adams (more than 12,00 feet).
