Trek Tip of the Week #2 SOCKS: Good socks are the second most important item that can promote an enjoyable and blister-free trek experience! Socks should be soft, wicking, formed and well-fitting (not too tight or too loose) and free of thick seams. Synthetic blends like coolmax, thorlo and wigwam help wick moisture away from feet and keep them dry. Absolutely no tube socks or worn socks with holes! It is helpful to bring multiple pairs and dust with powder (ziploc bag) so that you can change them when needed, to keep feet dry.
