[philmont] Philmont Camp Shoes

Pete Notes:
I knew a kid from another unit who had a failure on the stitching on his
boot sole on the first day. He had to hike the rest of the way in his camp
shoes. Luckily he had some fairly good tennis shoes. His feet hurt, but he
was able to make it. If he had only had crocs or water sox, his trip would
have ended early.

Been watching this thread with some interest as it is a good planning point.

Pete just ended the discussion for me and mine.

As a computer geek rule number 1 is that mechanical devices fail. On the
trail you need to assume that this will be the case as well.

Thanks for the lessons. Not sure I would have thunk it up on my own as my
boots are comfy and I don't normally need "camp shoes"
