Just a warning that mosquitoes go right through tight clothes like they aren't there. Loose clothes if you don't want mosquito bites

I didn't wear them specifically for hiking, but I love the Eddie Bauer Horizon Capris and The North Face Aphrodite 2.0 Capris recommended to me on this board. They are lightweight, dry quickly, repel moisture, etc. I wore them on my hot and humid Asia trip recently, and they worked great.
The last time I went hiking, I guess it was more of a trek - not many hills around these parts (drives me bonkers, actually) - but I wore drawstring cargo scrub pants, hiking boots, and layers.
