One of Pete Fish's Section Chiefs, who is responsible for coordinating 
PCTA trail work projects in Section A from the Mexican Border to Warner 
Springs PO, is a border patrol officer. He also helps pack in tools and 
supplies with his horses to projects needing this voluntary assistance 
anywhere within Pete's region.

Encountering him on the trail would be low key, as he wears no uniform 
except one resembling other Back Country Horsemen packers who are 
volunteering packing support for one of Pete's crews.
