[pct-l] Oprah and low snow provide a record year?

[patrick griffith]

Agree with Tortoise's sentiment,
Clearly Cheryl had a lot of personal issues that she was dealing with when she hiked the PCT, but there is no need to be so vulgar as to call her a prostitute.

We have enough through hikers who are annoyingly self promoters and peddling something. The spirit of the trail is lost when we follow. Will this novelty, like Bill Brysons book for the AT, coupled with a likely low snow year make 2013 a record year for thru-hikers attempted? I see the kickoff registration closed in 1 day as well. Any other indicators, like more than normal jounals?
