[pct-l] US Border Crossing Warning

[Scott Herriott]

What the?

>From the article...

"The U.S. Border Patrol is warning hikers on the Pacific Crest Trail they could face arrest, jail and a $5,000 fine if they cross the U.S.-Canadian border improperly.The Wenatchee World reports that the agency sent a letter last month urging the Pacific Crest Trail Association to warn hikers to only enter the U.S. at designated border crossings."
So does that mean that, legally, you're supposed get to the monument, turn around, get to a road then hitch in if you want to visit Canada?  If so, what a crock.
