[pct-l] Thru Hikers

[montypct]

Successfully sub 5 average and half the trail at sub 4.

Only had one challenging day and no really cold nights.  Eight of us finished in Manning on Sept. 22nd.  Two more of the same herd the following day.

Now I'm ready to join your ASDHA group............................. Starting with a Couch to Fridge YoYo.

  Ha, ha, ha.  Say, I hope you had a great 5-pound base pack weight thru hike this year.  Sounds like the weather up north is really bad now.

  Cheers, Switchback

  Hey Switchback!!

  Another version:
  Q:   What's the difference between a thru-hiker and a homeless person?
  A:   A shopping cart.

  True Story from this year's thru-hike
  July 2, 2007
  From Red's Meadow we took the bus into Mammoth.  No shower or laundry, looking pretty scuzzy.
  I sat on a ledge by the door outside the Vons grocery store with another hiker.  She looked pretty bad too.
  We had a shopping cart full of resupply in front of us.

  A sympathetic lady runs up and slips two dollars in my hand and says:  "I know what it's like."
