Default cold weather flying

Dan, getting out and getting the chute opened are independent of
footwear. ND is pretty flat and well plowed, but you wouldn't want to
walk on the NM canyons and desert in anything flimsy. Then consider how
far you may have to walk in those booties, assuming you haven't broken
an ankle on landing.

Dan as for a parachute landing the footware is probably the least of your concerns a good ways behind getting out eithout being struck and getting that chute opened. LOL
