Backpacking in King's Canyon

10. Mom Checks her Boots

Everyone takes a rest and Mom takes the opportunity to check her boots. On any hike taking care of your feet can be an absolute necessity. A blister on loose boots can bring the hike to a swift end. Someone needs to then carry the bistered person's gear and help them to get back or stop. Proper fitting footgear and socks can be vital to the success of the trip.
