[pct-l] need some info



JoAnn-
The simple solution is a satelitte phone. They are available for about $600
and weigh less than a pound--a cheap price to pay for the peace-of-mind of a
non-hiking husband who loves you. In my less than humble opinion you are in
more danger during town stops from 2 legged creachers than anything on the
trail.

Hey guys and gals, I can use some help. Reading the talk about a TM-20
has got me thinking about my solo hiking and bping.  Please, no mail
about how dangerous it is for a woman to be alone...I know and I will
still do it. What would you, who are "in the know", suggest for a
safety/fallback devise in case of an emergency?  What would you
recommend I take w/me in case of injury, etc? Is there anything 
(relatively light weight) I could carry w/me to reach the outside
world?  I have a non hiking husband who worries, a lot, while I'm gone.
JoAnn
