Hiking Shirts

You will be spending a lot of your time at Philmont hiking. You want to make sure you do it in the right clothing. If you are a normal person, you sweat when you hike. It is important you think about the shirts that you will be wearing. Have you ever heard the phrase, “Cotton Kills”? It’s true. Cotton holds water and loses it’s ability to keep you warm which might sound good in the middle of the day, but it holds onto that water into the evening and night too.

Lightweight wicking shirts are great while you are on the trail. They keep you cool during the day and dry quickly so that you are dry at night.
