[pct-l] about insurance"

[Gerry Zamora]

Never really thought about ins. I have blue shield thru my work and I am
covered after $1250, in costs and I am resposible for 30% of the cost after
that. If you are using your gps enabled phone on the trail do I need to go
get a SPOT
also?
Gotta love insurance company's.
