I didn't mean to imply that i could not understand him. He was quite
readable and understandable. Some of his words and expressions were not
what i am used to though, which just added to the stories charm.

I think I remember his hike as being 1991, not sure if that was in his book
or his website. Kudos for knowing he's a Kiwi, but really our language isn't
that strange. I was understood most of the time in the US.

I just finished reading Dances With Marmots - A Pacific Crest Trail
Adventure by George Spearing. I never did figure out when he did his thru
hike, but it appears to have been a number of years ago. I found the book
to be much better than "Wild" and, unlike that book, was really about hiking
the trail. George is a Kiwi so his language and expressions are sometimes a
bit strange, but I found his account to be entertaining and somewhat
humorous. Highly recommended.
