[QUOTE="rvs9, post: 711577, member: 1504"] Congrats on your booking. Idaho is a state on my list. If you are going to be walking as much as I believe you will, you're feet aren't going to get cold. Not too say ignore the guide's advice, but I have a 1000+ gram pair of Rocky boots from a hunt several year's back that I never did wear. Just too warm. You'll not get in shape enough to keep up with the guide. The altitude is really something else at those elevations. A good guide will know when to stop for us pansies. Don't be proud - you get winded, tell them. Be prepared to make short bursts of energy (i.e. climbing a hill, moving quick to cut a bull off). That's when you get winded and find yourself shaking on the shot. And definitely learn to shoot with sticks! [/QUOTE]
