The print edition finally has some relatively current photographs of a 
hiker in hirsute winter plumage rather than summer.



Where were you when Brian finished at 11 am Saturday EDT?    I'd just
finished the difficult and dangerous climb on map L6 from Wild Plum
to the PCT in sub-fifty-degree weather with over three thousand feet
of climb to go, under clouds threatening to end Indian Summer once and
for all in less than 48 hours...

Everybody has to find the level of challenge they can deal with!
Maybe the storm will take care of those dreaded Feather and Yuba river
flies at least until next season.
