    Default Should the Trail Days Hiker Parade be segregated?

    Should the purist thrus , blue-blazers, yellow-blazers, section thrus, section hikers, etc. be required to walk down the street in different groupings???

    I agree, segregation is the way to go. Add the following categories: internegators, trolls, net-hikers, and Squeeky supporters.

    I'd be surprised if anyone on this site has actually met you in person? Unless of course you didn't introduce yourself as Lobster.

    Yep. Good year. Rained every day in April, and almost not at all in June. Good stuff. Can't wait to get back out there.

    Were you out there that year?

    yeah, I hiked around Flint and Birch for a little bit, maybe Canuckelhead (??? can't remember), and Nimblewill Nomad as well. Got quoted in his book even (which I've yet to actually buy). All good folks.

    Didn't know the others, but knew of them. They were always a little ahead of me or a little behind I think. Maybe a night or two at the same place... maybe not. Can't remember either. Sigh...
