[pct-l] Wheeled Conveyances on the PCT

[Ryan Christensen]

Bob, 


I think a video is in order! It is a powerful way to educate, motivate and show vs. tell. My 'wheels' are turning, and I have some video ideas that I would like develop further.

Starting with the 2013 hiking season, all of the hikers I host in San Diego will be politely requested to send me photographs of trail damage caused by wheels, bike riders in violation of regulations, and incident reports of all encounters, good and bad.  Of course, this invitation extends to all PCT day hikers, section hikers and thru hikers who want to share their hiker/biker experiences.  Maybe somebody with more talent than I possess would produce a 2013 PCT video exclusively presenting a pictorial/video record of trail conditions as they presently exist.  Video of hiker/biker confrontations would seem to me to be particularly convincing.  2 or 3 bikers whizzing by at 25 mph would convince me of the inherent danger of mixed use of the PCT.  

Data needed with each photo or incident report would be date, time, location, direction of travel, distance to trailhead, description (caption) for each photo, names, if available of bikers, and name of person submitting the data.  

Hike on!! Good Luck to the Class of 2013.  Only a little over 6 months till ADZPCTKO 2013.  Bob Riess, San Diego.
