[pct-l] US Border Crossing Warning (Christopher Kopp)

[Tom Griffin]

I live in Seattle and have crossed the US-Canada border on hiking trails 
several times. The only time I heard of ANY border patrol officer at the 
PCT crossing was right after 9/11--when CANADIAN officials were checking 
NORTHBOUND PCT thruhiker permits for about a week.

I've never heard of a US border patrol officer at the PCT border 
crossing (and I've been on this list since started about 15 years ago). 
They don't have the staff to do it. If I were hiking southbound from 
Manning Park, I wouldn't worry about it.
