[pct-l] I had to walk 5 miles in the snow to get to school...uphill both way

[stillroaming@lycos.com (K. Scott Parks)]

When I refered to the hikers of '98 I was mentally
refering to a journal I'd read about a year and a
half ago. It was fascinating. No way would I have 
taken a trip like that with my meager experience.

The folks I was thinking of are Chris & Jenelle, 
who completed the trail south to north without
a flip-flop. I've dug up their url from pcta.org:

This journal is a page turner, absolutely the best
I've read (and I'ved read them all!). That statement 
is based on content of the journal, not creative 
writing style or la la land rhetoric. 

These are the type of folks I have absolute respect for.
Their accomplishment speaks volumes.
