[pct-l] Socks

[GentlyTred@aol.com]

The Smart Wool socks have been wonderful for me.  I get the second from
heaviest pair (can't remember what they're called).  I only have one pair of
these so far, but they're always the first socks I choose to take.  I like
that they fit my feet snuggly (As Thoros don't). 

As for liners, I wear them backpacking.   I bring extra liners and change them
and wash them more frequently than the outer socks.   (When I haven't worn
them on day hikes I've gotten blisters on the bottoms of my feet.  But then
again, I also wear a different pair of boots dayhiking - whether it's the
boots or socks I don't know.)
