I'm going to be hiking the West Coast Trail on Vancouver Island in late May and am looking for a good quality boot that will support my weight and a 30-pound pack.

The big risk is water topping over the boot when fording a stream or having water trickle down your legs and into your boots when walking through wet brush.
