[pct-l] Question about fording streams..

[jerrygoller at backpackgeartest.org (Jerry Goller)]

Well, I hike in sandals and, when it's warm, I just hike on though. When
it's cold I usually have fleece lined SealSkinzs on and just hike on
though.

And if it's muddy and the mud gets inside your shoes?  What do you do
then? My 904s are still soaking from last weekend's walk up from Big
Meadow to Showers Lake, too much snow obliterated the Trail to allow me
to get to Echo Lake.  A GPS with coordinates might have helped. JD
