[pct-l] one more lesson learned: another reason to be a sectionhiker

[Steel-Eye]

Hoping to wipe-out this discussion I should mention that here in the Pacific 
NW we have large, soft Thimble Berry leaves and lots of Old Man's Beard tree 
moss.  Lots and lots of moss....

We also have the smooth river rocks but they may be found in close proximity 
to the volcanic cinder variety.  You may be in a hurry -- experiencing what 
TV commercials euphemistically term "embarrassing urgency" -- but avoid 
confusing the two types of rock.
