I agree! Amen! Enough bickering! Think about the times you were on the
trail and how the other hikers greeted you and treated you.

Hikers are like family....they are like a "Band of Brothers" and look
out for each other.
That is why it always saddens me to see hikers turn against hikers over
trivial things like hiking style or pack weight.
When that happens my memory always wanders back to something "Radar"
(Gary) once said.
Radar once said............"Why must there be a right way and a wrong
way to hike the trail"?
Yes, I ask you................. WHY?
Why can't we all just hike our own way without criticizing each others way.
There will always be "Rabbits" (Ultra-liters) and "Turtles" (Heavy
Truckers).
Who is to say that the rabbits way is the better way or that the rabbit
enjoys its journey more?
I have been a rabbit and a turtle, enjoyed my journey either way and
have come to realize there really is no absolute right way.....what
works for you is the right way...for you.
I SAY...Let them go on their journey their own merry way....and let them
enjoy their journey their own special way.
JMT Reinhold
Your trail companion, enjoying his journeys which ever way
