Re: [pct-l] Blister Prevention

Michael,

<<  They also say to tape the area where blisters tend to appear with
breathable 
 medical or sports tape. This is supposed to prevent blistering and help
toughen 
 the skin in the area. Anyone tried that? I may do so on my next power hike, 
 after these blisters heal! >>

Try moleskin or plain old duct tape BEFORE you begin the hike.
