[pct-l] Newby Concerns

[dsaufley at sprynet.com]

If you've prepared well, the drive to and from the trail head will probably be the most dangerous part of your journey.  The best advice:  get out there and hike!!!  Life is full of risk.  If you're really, really lucky, you'll see one of these beautiful animals.

>I'm a  (relatively) new hiker (day hikes only, no overnights since Boy Scouts 45 yrs. ago) and I'm a little hesitant at times to go since I go alone and there has been quite an increase in mountain lion attacks, sightings and stalkings (another one just two weeks ago) here in California.  Any opinions, good areas, trails, sightings, cheap prices on bazookas, advice???
