[pct-l] Hiker help

[John Le Pouvoir]

*Bob Holtel** hopes to run the entire PCT over two summers, ending his
journey at Campo the day he celebrates his 80th birthday.  Last summer, Bob
successfully completed the northern leg, from Lassen to the Canadian border,
and currently finds himself thick in the midst of logistics and seeking good
folks to assist him in his journey for the upcoming second and final leg
commencing next June 18, 2011 at Lassen and ending on his 80th birthday at
the Mexican border in  September 30.** To complete the Lassen to Campo leg
he’ll need help from a lot of kind people.****
