    OMO, let us know what you think of this book. The Chris Sylvia case is the one I think most likely to be something sinister. On my hike through that section I decided that 'Mike's Place' just wasn't my scene (drugs and they just wanted the cute young things to stay anyway). I moved on and camped next to a dirt track just a little bit north. I had an uncomfortable feeling all night, and random cars driving on that dirt track in the middle of the night stopping, turning off their lights and just s…

  • Quote from hikerboy: “Supposedly he's starting in March, ” Starting on March is 'cheating.' Real men start in January. I want to see the video of him getting rescued off of Clingmans Dome after spending three days and nights hunkered down in a porta=potty.

  • Matt_C's rant against the Gator is a hoot. Pure Gold! And he used the same 'If you argue against me, you prove my point' line as he did with us. I'm telling you, Matt_C is a genius. He can never lose an argument this way. He will always be in the right while the rest of the world is wrong. What a way to go through life. He must be a lonely, lonely man.

    I got this one wrong, but I did it at a different computer at work than I usually use. New Cookies. My winning streak on my desktop computer is preserved. I'll walk away from this other computer leaving my 0 / 1 score in the dustbin of history S

    It is this format in general that is not growing. TOS faces the same thing. Everything is a Tweet or Snapchat now. I prefer a thread history I can follow and content that is (can be?) informative.

    Shane MacGowan of the Pogues has died. He lived hard, and died young. I am not sure how to classify his music, Celtic Punk? I suppose this is the wrong thread for that. Since we are entering the Christmas Season I'll offer up one of my favorite Christmas Songs, the controversial 'Fairytale of New York.' youtube.com/watch?v=j9jbdgZidu8

    What a great article Astro. It is fun to dream My thoughts... Pacific Northwest Trail: The photos that accompany that article are stunning. Certainly a great advertisement for that hike. I would consider it. Mountains-to-Sea Trail: I actually like trails that include some interspersed town-walks (sorry Matt-C). This trail sounds like fun to me. The way I would want to handle the longer road walks is by bike (although the paddling options sound great too). I did this with a shorter 200 mile trail…

    HikerBoy posted some photos of it coming down online. Maybe he will share here? Change is inevitable. But I have never enjoyed it.

  • Thanks for the trip report LI Hikers. Sorry to hear about your leg. Tell me, it sounds like the GAP trail goes through some urban areas. Did you feel safe camping near them? When I was a kid the train tracks in town is were we all met up for mischief. I imagine things have not changed that much for 'rail trails.' Scott
