SKiing in a Kilt take 2

[ozone]

Here's some photos from March 25 at Aspen Highlands. I hope this proves once and for all that it is possible to ski in a proper kilt. For your reference, 'tis but a small hike to the top of Highland bowl (12,300 ft).

I also found out that hiking in a kilt made me a much faster hiker, I passed at least 1/2 dozen people on the way up.....usually I fall behind on the way to the summit and little teenagers pass me up. Now, when i ski in regular clothes, I strip down to fleece before going up the hill.

Ohh, I love those mountains. Great pictures!

And, maybe everyone was just letting you get ahead of them. You know what I mean? :rolleyes:

Great pics,

Kilts against the snow are beautiful.

Who's the kiltmaker?

Wonderful shots! Glad that you shared with us.

fantastic pictures!

I'm working on a kiltpin (commercial) website...I'll also add a kilt info section.
Can I use one of your pictures to show kilts are comfortable in the cold?

Cheers!

To Robin:

Feel Free to post a picture on your website. David from Freelander sporran already did on his. If you need higher resolution pictures, let me know and I can email them to you. Also, please give the photographer credit (jason bucheim).

To Riverkilt:

The kiltmaker was the celtic craft center in Edinburgh ( http://members.aol.com/ccckilt/ccc.html ). Also, the tartan is from the welsh tartan center and is the Maddux (Madoc) tartan...my family name.

To everyone so far, thanks for the enthusiatic response! If anyone if ever interested in skiing the highlands in a kilt (weather permitting...I personally wouldn't go if it were -20F), drop me an email and I can show you around the place.
