You really need at least two pairs. One dry pair to put on each morning while the other dries out. Gaiters are essential to keep the snow out. I usually wear a hiking boot in the early season and a higher hunting boot after the snow stays. Pack boots if it's really cold and traveling by snow machine.

Current favorite hunting boot is Rocky:

Been wearing Rocky's for last 20 years.
