It all depends on what you want to achieve! Though its true that you have to watch for diffraction, but sometimes its better to compromise, I use apertures in landscape of f/16, or f/22 quite often when shooting MF, with FF I'll keep em "open" a bit more. In the end it depends on you, the scene and how you want to interpred it!
SPeter - you make another excellent point and I appreciate it. I suspect that I will be shooting a lot of ice and water. I probably will try manual and aperture priority. I intend to try a circular polarizer because of the glare that I expect...although it could be snowing or raining. I might also try AEB to try and capture one good shot. In any case, trying different f stops is a good way to go.
Thanks for your input.
