[pct-l] cool atlas (& hitchhiking)

[Trekker4 at aol.com (Trekker4@aol.com)]

I just buy regular Rand McNally state road maps,  mark the trail(s) with 
orange highlighter, and then tear off all unneeded parts  to reduce the weight. I 
call the result my hitchhike map, partly in case I ever  need to bail out and 
hitch somewhere, I won't be wondering where the hell I am  and which way to 
hitch. The other partly is just because I just like maps,  and looking at the 
big picture occasionally.
    Many weeks ago I pasted my 10 Rules for  Hitchhiking into a post; it 
didn't paste too well, and someone suggested  converting it into a .txt file. 
Instead, as we close in on ADZ..., I'll just  offer to email it to anyone who 
wants it; it's an MS Word 2000  .doc.
