Hello PCT folks!

The new edition of "Yogi's PCT Handbook" has just arrived!  This edition is
the first MAJOR revision since the inception of this book in 2004.  The
original hiker contributors have been put to rest.  Now the book has a new
set of contributors - 19 hikers from 2008/2009/2010 - while, of course,
retaining the contributions from Billy Goat and Scott Williamson.

The new hiker contributors are:  Bigfoot, Bruiser, Buckeye & Swift, Burning
Daylight, Fidgit, Good Spot & Wonka, Iceaxe, Jester, Joker, Miner, Sage,
Shroomer, Socks, Straight Jacket, Swiss Miss, Voyageur, Warner Springs
Monty.  These hikers put a lot of time and thought into a VERY LONG
questionnaire regarding their PCT hikes.  These hiker contributors have a
wide range of age (22 years old, to 61 years old) and hiking experience
(never hiked before, to Triple Crown hikers).

There is never one correct answer to any hiking-related question.  Because
of that, the book has differing opinions from people who've been there -
people who have thru-hiked the PCT.  You'll quickly realize that there are
some issues that almost everyone agrees on, and others that no one agrees
on.  That's the beauty of thru-hiking!
