Yeah, As long as your feet don't get wet! I paid 250 bucks for some fancy hiking boots to climb el misti in peru. Not only did I not need them, they broke after the first day, could have gone up in tennis shoes. The only challenge of that hike was I didn't sleep a wink for 3 days straight before ascending, was literraly having microsleeps while pushing towards the summit.
Being that we're pretty much neighbours, have you done any nearby climbs like washington or Mt katahdin in Maine?
