[pct-l] Purpose of PCT-L

[Tortoise]

What is the purpose of this list?

I checked the website for the official purpose stated by Brick and/or 
Ryan and did not find a statement.

At least for me this list is about the PCT -- thru hiking, "section" 
hiking whether that be a few miles or 2000, hiking gear as it relates 
(hopefully) to the PCT, maintaining and protecting the trail and trail 
corridor, and so on.

Sure there is a lot of discussion in the off season about helping those 
planning to thru hike, but this has not been the sole topic.

I've learned a lot about lite wate (light weight) backpacking. I met a 
good hiking buddy thru this list.

So let's continue to discuss the PCT and just ignore the rest.
