    Are you looking for a challenge?

    So someone at work told me he wants to wear a kilt more often, but they would restrict the things he could do.

    So here's a few things you can do in a kilt in just one day.

    Freeclimbing 40 foot cliffs.




    Hanging off of 10 foot bridges.




    Swinging on a rope swing.




    Walking along a tree spanning a gorge.




    And, of course...
    Climbing up a river to the base of a waterfall and looking majestic.

    You wear your kilt as a garment, not as a costume. Now...that's what I call kilt wearing!

    Looking good. Proof indeed that a man in a kilt is a hardy and adventurous fellow whom you should never mess with.

    LOL. I love the swinging on a rope swing picture! All you see is the blur, but I literally laughed out loud when I saw that one. Thanks for sharing!

    Those are great pictures Arlen, looks like it was a nice hike.

    Freeclimbing makes me cringe but that may be better than top-roping and being the belayer at the bottom! Excellent pics and a kilt worn well.

    Great illustrations of the versatility & freedom of movement the kilt provides, Arlen.

    However, I can think of 3 activities that I wouldn't do while kilted - sky diving, para-sailing & bungee-jumping - not that I'm prone to doing those activities, anyway...
