<div>No problem Scott. We won't worry about any of the hikers anymore. They choose to go out in hazardous conditions........why should we give a rip about their safety. You got your opinion across loud and clear. HIKE YOUR OWN HIKE SCOTT. Don't worry about your fellow hikers. Our job is done. Trail angels just need to SERVE you when you show up. Other wise we are useless individuals. Thank you for letting us know how we should act.

There seems to be a rash of 'concerned' individuals collecting information<br>on hikers, when they clearly should not. Knowing the where-a-bouts of hikers<br>along the trail because YOU need to know is not a valid reason for
<br>collecting this information.<br><br>This 'caring, helpful' trail supporter mentality can actually have the<br>opposite effect, such as, calling search & rescue because YOU'RE concerned.<br>Not because THE HIKERS require it.
<br><br>Communicating hiker information to the public is WRONG and NOT YOUR PLACE.<br>In the future, please think twice before you act.<br><br>Scott Parks<br><br>------------------------------------<br>Trails : <a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://postholer.com/" target="_blank">
