I hiked the Chisos last August. There was water at Boot Spring but you want to check and see if it is a wet year.
The temps were pleasent on my 4 day hike. Low 80's for a high in the mountains.
I was told I was a nut for trying but had a great trip.
If the spring is not running make a "just water trip " down and re-fill.
I had the mountians to myself and would recommend it in a heart beat,
Will do it again this year if I can!!!!
