[pct-l] Pika Stove system winning hiker

[Deems]

Yikes, I hope the hikers don't jump me!  The winner of the Pika stove system 
is Shon McG.  The 100,000th  hit came in this morning from Japan at 5:12am 
during my morning coffee, and Shon is the closest by guessing 11/29 at 
10:47am.   The competition between entries was incredible, with guesses that 
ranged from 11/20 to 2/09/12.  I've built most every do it yourself alcohol 
stove system out there, and the Pika is the most fuel efficient and flexible 
alcohol stove design I've found.   I'm sure Shon will carry his Pika stove 
system (Pika stove, folding spoke stand, and windscreen) for many years into 
the wilderness.  It was fun to share this momentous occasion with the PCT 
family.
Happy Trails

Subject: Free Pika Stove system to a winning hiker

The Pika Stove website is at 99,000 hits on 11/15.  I will build a Pika 
alcohol solo
stove system for the first PCT hiker that can tell me which day and time it
will cross 100,000 hits. Only the first person closest to predicting the day
and time will get a stove system.  Only the first entry per hiker will be
accepted.  Entry submissions via my email will be accepted up to noon PST on
11/20.  No sales, the stove system you get will be built by me, and I
rarely build any anymore.  Good luck, and happy hiking!
