So I'm practicing for a hike down to Havasupai in the Grand Canyon this May.

Wearing my well softened Pittsburgh Kilts forest MARPAT.

Still, even after using Bodyglide, the ol' firehelmet started to get chaffed. Didn't think to bring the Bodyglide with me, but hadn't intended to hike so far.

I'm out in the boonies, no one else around, what the hell. Just tucked the corners of the aprons up into my belt and gave the boys some sunshine. It stopped the chaffing, warm enough the wind felt good.

If I would of thought of it sooner could have avoided the chaffing by hiking like that once I got away from other humans.

My Macabi River Skirt has snaps on tabs to hold it up in sort of a baggy shorts shape. Maybe I could add some tabs with snaps on the apron corners and a snap up near the waist to receive them.

No clue what it would look like to oncoming traffic...certain arrest and a life time of registering as a flasher....? Don't know if the "Fire Helmet" defense would hold up....
