Do you have a favorite trail runner for Sierra Nevada? I'm a section hiker, Rubicon Trail, Desolation Wilderness, PCT near Tahoe. Trail conditions are poor, sandy granite, walking on soft-ball-sized rocks. I normally wear Merril boots, but trying to lighten my load. A pound off the feet is like five off your back? is that true?

I have a 12Wide foot, emphasis on the wide. I'd like to get 100 miles out of them. I plan on using the blue superfeet insole.
