[pct-l] beware the dreaded watergonemus!!

[Pea Hicks]

as i dropped off a couple section hikers at campo yesterday, noting the 
unseasonably hot and dry conditions, and fielding the common questions 
about rattlesnakes, scorpions, mountain lions, bugs, etc. i came up with 
a new sniglet which gave me a laugh... the REAL "creature" to be feared 
down here in socal is the dreaded WATERGONEMUS (?wo?-t?r-?go?-n?-m?s)... 
known to attact hikers just as they're gulping down the last drops from 
their nalgene, 9 miles short of the next water source... i made sure 
they took an extra few liters apiece to ward off this fierce and cunning 
beast...

BEWARE!

and be SAFE out there this year, i think it's gonna be a scorcher...
