[pct-l] Identification at the Canadian Border

[jerrygoller@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Jerry Goller)]

I'll be the first to say I have a deep seated aversion to authority. I also
have friends in WA....yes, I actually *do* have friends....lol. I'm just
going to have them pick me up at Lone Fir campground off WA 20. I'll hike up
to the border, touch it with my toe, and hike back to the road.

Unless I have missed it, I have not seen any discussion on what people are
taking with them for identification to get into Canada and return to the
States.

Last year a number of people were met by Canadian Immigration between the
monument and Manning Park. Some hiker journals even reported a Camper and
several officials. There did not seem to be any rhyme or reason when the
immigration would show up. But if I remember correctly they did have a list
of through hikers and there expected date of arrival into Canada.

Just a thought for 2003 hikers to be prepared.
