Good evening, Mike,

How to distinguish between a sasquatch and a trail pirate?  Easy: You can smell the pirate long before it gets close enough to drool on your neck.

Good evening, Argentina,That's good training.  I did much the same thing many years ago in the 
Mt. Jefferson Wilderness, except I had one daughter in the pack in back and another in a carrier in front.  The load was pretty well balanced that way.There's only one problem that I can see:  If you become accustomed to feeling
 hot breath and drool on the back of your neck, how will you notice that you are being closely followed by a sasquatch?Steel-Eye  ----- Original Message -----   From: Glen Winters   To: pct-l   Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2008 7:04 PM
