[pct-l] What are Trail Angels?

[Tortoise]

Why does a trail angel have to be a non-hiker??  Or at least not 
currently hiking?

I've gotten excellent assistance from a pair of hikers coming off the 
trail the same place I did -- in this case a ride home from Edison Lake 
to Oakland.  They refused $ for gas. And a hiker hiking the opposite 
direction who gives you trail info is just as much an angel.
