Love hiking in a skirt

Just finished a long multi-day backpack wearing a skirt and bike shorts.
Pros:
1. Easy to update from shorts to long pants if the weather changes
2. No belt line to dig into my skin when cinching the waist belt
3. Ease of answering nature's call with minimum exposure
4. Makes changing garments below the waist much easier
5. Much cooler

Cons
Small pocket
