Who has used vapor barriers, ie plastic bags, over their bare feet, under their socks and boots, to keep boots dry while snow camping multiple days? Still haven't tried it, afraid of prune feet and blisters from soggy skin.

But last week I woke up in the tent with frozen boots that took hours to feel warm even while hiking-just from the moisture that came out of my feet the previous day or two hiking. I don't think they were damp inside because of the soggy snow, I think the gore-tex wasn't letting much sweat out (better than soaking through, though).

In any case damp boots are unavoidable, unless one wears plastic bags on their feet. Anyone prefer that for winter multi-day trips?
