Last time I hunted desert quail it was in terrain that looked exactly like that, just outside Tucson. I wore a well broken in pair of Selous boots. They worked fine for me. Same boots I work in. I have worn out two pair, but it has taken many years to do so.

I like Bean's Maine boot, too, but mostly for places where you may be in and out of wet.
