That's a head problem - has nothing to do with your body.

No attack - just a simple statement of fact.  You're welcome to take it as 
an attack if you like, but that's your problem - not mine.

So far, you've shown a great willingness to argue - I've yet to see any 
indication that you're here to learn anything.  I'd welcome any evidence to 
the contrary.


>I post my experience, you post yours. Isn't that the point?

Your viewpoint, your experience - don't seem to be consistent with anything 
that even resembles thruhiking - or long-distance hiking - or support for 
the PCT.  If I'm wrong, please point out my error.

As for experience - what experience do you have with long distance hiking?  
In this context "long distance hiking" could mean any hiking for 60 days or 
more - anywhere in the world. If you have any such experience, I think a 
number of us would be interested in hearing about it.

If you haven't done any such thing, are you willing to learn about it - or 
do you just want to argue about something that you don't know anything 
about?

Once again, you tell the world of your lack of experience with long distance 
hiking.  ALL long distance hikers - and thruhikers in particular - ARE 
insane.  That's a given.  Has nothing whatever to do with candy bars.

Walk softly,
Jim
