[pct-l] Safety on the PCT

[Liz Mares]

Much good advice about hiking safety on the list.
   
   I read a true story somewhere about how a young gal thwarted an attack by pretending she flipped out.  Like she was having a seizure; falling down, rolling her eyes, started jerking hard, drooling and screaming loudly something like, AY, AY, AY, AY, or EEE, EEE, EEE.  It was so bizarre her attacker ran off.  Don't know if this would work for anybody else but it worked for her!
