The idea of a kilt as a hiking garment was what drew me into the kilt world. Not on the trail or in a kilt as much, but planning to change that. X marker Andrew Breecher has done a lot of kilted hiking, including through hiking the Appalachian Trail. You should get ahold of him for advise, and to swap stories.
Sounds like a great adventure and I really envy you doing it in your kilt. My wife and I were just up in the Allegheny National Forest in Central PA (near Clarion) in February, but I was a 'wuss' and found it too cold and snowy to wear my kilt for a hike (it was in the teens). I guess I'm getting old but, I just can't handle the cold like I used to.
