of this letter? It says Grama Gatewood did the AT in 1955? What was the
answer you got at the KO? I believe it was wrong if this is right.
---------------------------------
The question at the Kickoff seminar for the pink flamingo shelter stakes was
how old was Grandma Gatewood when she began her hiking career. It was 67.
The reason I like this fact so much is that I will be 66 when I do my PCT
thru hike in 2013. This give me some hope.
I got my information from the book, We're in the Mountains, Not Over the
Hill by Susan Alcorn. This is a good book and I enjoyed reading it down at the
Kickoff.
Say, at the big KM event coming up in June, I will be giving away some more
excess gear like I did down at the Kickoff. I have a tent, ice ax, bear
canister, etc to be given away free. I want to clear out my garage of all this
stuff that has piled up.
Your obedient servant, Switchback the Free Yard Sale
