I'm planning on a PCT thru-hike this coming year and am trying to figure out the best clothing set-up for the desert section. I'm VERY pale. I cannot tan (I've literally never had a tan. I'm either pink or white) so if I go with a hiking skirt I'm thinking it would need to be ankle length. I like the idea of a skirt for practical reasons (peeing) as well as having lots of ventilation, but am unsure if a long skirt would be any better than regular hiking pants? Any thoughts? Anyone have experience hiking the desert section of the PCT in a long skirt? Thanks in advance!
