I am heading to Vegas end of January and hope to spend a day each in Zion and Bryce with my kids ages 11/14/16. In Zion we will do several trails starting from the Valley and in Bryce we will do a 6-8 mile loop down into the hoodoos.
We own non-waterproof trail runners and will have microspikes and trekking poles. I am not interested in buying new footwear as I live in South Florida and winter hiking is not something that will happen again anytime soon and they will have different sizes anyway by then. Is non-waterproof trail runners and extra socks sufficient or should I buy waterproof socks just in case? Other economical ideas?
