For me it depends on the trip, but I am going to be a bit different and go with my Salomon XA Pro 3D GTX trail Runners. Definitely heavier than what you all are taking, but... I can rotate them in with my boots for days where the terrain allows for it, and it gives me a fast and light option if I need to put a stalk on. Just another point of view to consider.. : )
