[pct-l] Legal Ponderings......

[Andrea Dinsmore]

You would need to go back a couple months to the discussion of collecting
names from trail registers to put together as an ongoing history of who
hiked the trail over the years. Some hikers were for the recorded history
and some were against it. Those against felt it was an invasion of their
privacy and they didn't want anyone to know they had been out here. Those
who were for it were interested in having a historic record of who was out
there before and after they went through. Also, as you said some felt it was
a help in locating lost hikers. To each his (or her) own. If you want
privacy in the Internet world...don't post your every move and thought for
the world to see. If you want to be invisible on the trail.....don't sign
your name and don't tell other hikers who you are. They might just write
about you in their journal.
