> Hi fellow PCT-ers and trail angels,
>
> My name is Heidi (trail name: Chinese Rock). I am a Chinese long distance
> hiker who plans to thru-hike the PCT next year. In the past summer I
> finished the Colorado Trail--what a fantastic hike!  I've been following
> this email list-serv for a long time, and was updated on all the SAR news
> recently...it was tragic, along with the gov shutdown.
>
> I have another piece of bad news here...I was just informed that a Japanese
> hiker named "Taka" left *Skykomish on Sept 25th* and was never heard of
> since then. Many of you might already know him, since he was one of the 8
> Japanese hikers who thru-hiked PCT last year.
>
> Taka attended the PCT Days, and then headed towards the Canadian border. He
> is expected to reach Stehekin on 9/30. Two days passed and we still heard
> nothing from him. His friend "Goku" (PCT 2013 Japanese thru-hiker) and many
> others (including "Low Gear") have attempted to contact him through
> facebook and email, but he did not reply back.
>
> So--if you happen to ever meet or hear about Taka after 9/25, please let us
> know! His friends and family will greatly appreciate your information. If
> we still hear nothing from him, we'll resort to SAR immediately.
>
> Thank you very much!
