What can be the worst case weather scenario? My friend, John, who'd recently been to Mt. Gorgonio, had the scariest hiking tale of his life. He was trapped in a hale storm near the summit and all he's wearing were shorts, t-shirt, and light windbreaker! Thank God that he lived to warn his hiking buddies of his personal near-death experience. I definitely won't be caught dead with my knickers on. However, the sun can also smirk at you and play a sinister role in hiking. I remember one time when there's too much heat on high elevation and there's not enough water. Man, weather can really play its tricks.
