There have been many similar threads. Check out Sierra Trading Post when they re-open. Lowa Tibet, Kenner, Asolo, and Danner USA all make good boots. My favorite is Galibier and Lowa but many others are good. The Alilco from Sierra trading post are very well made old school hiking boots. Get them one size larger and put a good in-sole in them and wear a liner sock and wool outer and you will be set. The Summit is a good compromise model.
Red Wing boots are still very good and worth a look. Early season you can get by with hikers like the Merrill Moab 2 or the Keen Targhee II, these are very light and the ankle high ones are sufficient. Only if you are packing out do you need heavier foot wear. Later in the season about 200 grams of Thinsulate and a water barrier liner are nice. More extreme conditions Schnees or Whites boots are great but beyond your budget.
