[pct-l] Permit Memories

[Tim Umstead]

The first time my wife and I hiked the PCT, back in 1996, there was no
registration through the PCTA.  I drove to a Cleveland National Forest
office to fill out the permit.  The person there had not heard of the PCT
and could not imagine anyone hiking that far.  The permit wanted me to fill
in nights and I showed them my 5 month schedule.  In the end, I just put
towns and my itinerary dates and not all of those fit.

Things have changed a bit.
