[pct-l] JMT winner-looser prizes

[reinholdmetzger at cox.net]

Mike,
It's me, JMT Reinhold, I am the one whose record you are trying to best.
Nice to hear from you and glad to see that you are on board.
Yes, with 5 record attempts, the JMT will be smoking this year.
To answer your question:
Why don't I just arrange for Angelina Jolin to meet you guys at the finish line.......the winner gets one night with Angelina
              the looser gets one night with Switchback  (hiker 97)

Mike, I have hikers on the trail sign my tiny note pad verifying they met me at specific locations on the trail at specific times.
Go get em Tiger!!!

JMT Reinhold

It'd be perfect if we all started at the same time, like someone here said - 4 guys standing on top of whitney and saying to each other - I'll race you to yosemite, but seems like some of us will go off on different days. I would like to start with on Sunday morning at 0600, and looks like Aaron wants to do the same.

I will not need to leave extra gear behind before the start, whatever gear I'm taking - I'll carry it all during the attempt, there's not much anyway. Oh yeah, maybe a book, but I hope to pass it over to any hikers going down.
