    Stunning place, though I think I would have worn some boots on the white stuff. Thanks for posting.

    Share your thoughts on the ease (or differences) in hiking in a kilt in that terrain verses other clothing (dare I mention two legged apparel). Thank you for sharing the photos. We are not all lucky enough to enjoy the outdoors the way you have.

    And he made the kilt himself.

    Hi there ~ on our hike to wine-glass bay, we were actually trail-running / jogging on the rough walking path - and it was a hot day - but I felt that the light wool (13 ounce) + the air-flow worked ok for me - I have a pretty high tolerance for both heat and cold, so unless it was really really hot, or below zero cel. I think I'd be fine in a kilt ~ (more changing the top half to deal with the temp.)

    I love walking and hiking kilted - the best ~

    Climbing up steep/ vertical piles of rocks to get to the summit of Cradle-Mountain - I'm not sure, maybe I had more ease of movement compared to jeans, but the kilt could easily get in the way n__n - definitely not traditional mountain-climbing garb ~
