[pct-l] ULA and Anna: Lame

[CHUCK CHELIN]

Good morning,

I think the faux pas, if there must be one, was not in the suggested
frontal nudity – as others have said that’s not so uncommon on the trail –
if anything, it’s the fact that Anna doesn’t look like a real hiker.
Consider:

-  No serious hiker that I know would be seen in those tight, hip-hugger
pants.

-  Hikers don’t look like they have bathed recently.  In the film does she
have salt streaks down her back?

-  I don’t see that she has any strap-rash over her shoulders or above her
hip bones.

-  I see no indent that indicates she had been wearing a snug jog-bra.
Hikers with her frontal configuration find that bra-less hiking is a flop.

-  She doesn’t seem to have any sun tan or burn lines on her neck or arms.

-  I’ve never seen hair that neat further than ½-mile from the border
monument.  It’s usually just hat-hair full of snarls.

-  It’s difficult to see in the video, but I’ll bet a raisin cookie that
she has neatly shaven pits and legs – an improbability on the trail.

-  Again, I can’t see for sure, but I expect her nails are colored and
nicely manicured.

-  I didn’t see her cram the last half of a Snickers Bar into her mouth
just before she began to measure her back.

It’s the little things that trip-up the armatures,
