I actually think that people look better naked than clothed. Or at  
least nakedness sort of neutralizes some unpleasant factors making  
people just look human.

The real problem with naked day is that a thin layer of nylon is  
often the only thing standing between you and horrible odors. Remove  
that, and well, I don't want to think about it.

Also, since Summer Solstice is in June and most people are hiking the  
High Sierra on that day, there's a risk of unfortunate mosquito bites  
and badly-located sunburn.
