Men's LTM6 Airflo Hat
Reviewed by Tim Nye (Gourmet), Aug 02, 2009

"I used this hat in the desert on the PCT from Campo to Big Bear in late April - early May 2009. The brim is the right size to afford maximum protection from the sun during the high UV mid-day hours. In fact, at the end of Fuller Ridge on Mt. San Jacinto the ambassador of the PCT, Billy Goat, was encamped, also wearing this hat."
