what hat do you wear while backpacking?

[sab]

A lot of guys are liking the Tilley hats these days fit Sun protection, however I don't they'd be very practical in conjunction with a backpack. I'd think the brim would be to rigid. Good colors though. http://www.tilley.com/canada_en/shop_men?cat=44&t_filter_category=206

I have an LTM6 and wear it backpacking all the time. The brim is not stiff at all.

i rock a boonie all the time while im out scouting / hunting etc. not too concerned about the dork factor. im in the mountains, who cares? not once have i seen some hot babe out in the woods who wouldnt give me the time of day because im wearing a dorky boonie. in addition to sun protection theyre easy to ring out after dunking in a creek when they get all sweaty, and the brim doesnt get in the way of bowstrings / scopes and whatnot like some stiff brimmed hats can.
