OK- so now that I've discovered the amazing benefits of wool, I wonder if wearing a wool camisole in the Grand Canyon this summer would help with
1) moisture wicking
2) the funk that will develop after a few days without a *real* washing (my body or my clothes)
3) cooling

I want to keep my clothing to a minimum. If wool will carry me through a few days of hiking, I'm all in. Do any of you wear wool in the summer to help with moisture wicking? Does it keep you cool? Any thoughts?

I love my synthetics for working out in the summer, but they do collect a funk after one wear. If I can get away with 2 shirts for 4 days in the canyon, I would like that a whole lot more than carrying 2 synthetics that will absorb the funk.
I do plan on wearing my arm coolers with a tank/camisole for sun protection.
