I recently hiked up Mt Whitney (at 14,494 ft, the hightest mountain in the Lower 48 U.S. states) and am planning to hike up again at the end of this month. I had seriously thought about hiking it last month in my Workman's Utilikilt, but decided that I literally didn't want to carry that weight. Now I'm looking for a lightweight, cool, comfortable kilt to backpack and camp in. Additionally, I'd prefer it be inexpensive and available on short order.
I know! I'm putting so many qualifications on it that my chances are reduced to very few, but I'd appreciate what the kiltmakers have to say, particularly about which models and materials are best for backpacking in warm weather.
Thanks.
Roy
