[at-l] Blister Prevention

[bleederguy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx (Beau Bushor)]

I do something similar. I rub Bag Balm http://www.bagbalm.com/ on to my
feet then wear a lightweight polypro sock with a lightweight hiker sock.
Rarely have blisters, jungle rot or utter issues.

A hiking friend swears by this system:  first rub vaseline on your feet,
then put on a pair of knee-high stockings, then your cushy hiking socks.
Says she doesn't blister with this system.

Has anyone else tried it?  With what results?
