That sounds like fun. Jeff and I went to our aunt’s wedding in Boise in January 99. It was on top of a 6000 peak, so we snowshoed to the top and everyone camped there for 3 days.
I doubt my leg will be in shape for hiking for at least another year, though.
New balance are great hikers but u will need something with more of a tough more sturdy sole. U will be puttin a beating on ur feet n boots ,remeber…u will have them on for two weeks. Look at the troops,they have many problems with their feet from hiking n being in boots.
Pointers too…if u get high boots lace them tight up top if u are hiking down a steep trail and lace em tight towardsthe bottom if ur are climbing a steep grade. Trust me…
