[pct-l] [PCTSection] Fw: Experience the Pacific Crest Trail with the National Geographic Channel

[Monty Tam]

You're right ASABAT

At 11pm on the 4th of July?!?.  That's 2am Eastern/Appalachian Trail Time.
There will be no "Extreme" Bryson effect from NG TV on the PCT.
This might be a blessing............... Though I do fear DVR.

BTW Rob, did they contact you in the making?  They were told you were the local expert and helped build the trail.

Check out the film work.  That was the best part of the documentary and some of it done by our own PCT Pro Deal (Bristolcone Media/Ryan Christensen mentioned in the Credits).  He also, appearing in the film, sums up the life change of a thru-hike in four seconds.  My favorite shot.  It's at the very end.

  Hi All,
   
       National Geographic is presenting an "Extreme" one hour program about the PCT on the 4th of July. For more info go to:

      I saw this movie at the ADZPCTKO in April. Other than over using the word "Extreme" and following a number of people who didn't make it to Canada last year, it does a fairly good job of presenting the trail. My recommendation is to hike it this year before the mobs hear about it.
