[pct-l] 24x24x24 and dope smokers and fire starters

[Diane at Santa Barbara Hikes dot com]

I just have to say that by far most people I met on the PCT were  
ordinary, really great people. Seemed like a ton of them were  
software engineers, teachers and other professionals. Most were  
strong, focused and highly successful people. The kind who become  
leaders. It's not all debauchery and dope and people starting the  
forest on fire or calling for SAR rescues. PCT MOM is right, though.  
By the time hikers get up there, anybody prone to debauchery down in  
So Cal has either dropped out or put all that aside.

Just thought I would remind the list that most hikers are just  
regular folks.
