I tried a medium height hiking shoe and didn’t like it. I don’t like anything touching my ankles. So back to low top.

I also tried wool socks and wasn’t too happy with them. I don’t have trouble staying warm and even lightweight had my feet sweating. I like them in snow but I’m not expecting snow.

Next up… trekking poles. I’ve always been amused at hikers using them but everything I see and read say they’re really good for keeping stress off your knees. Thoughts?
