**DavidNH** · 10-11-2006, 17:49

Hi,

I am wondering if anyone can tell me how far the following '06 north bound AT hikers got and if they have completed their thru hike.

Cheese whiz
FDR Key stone Dave
Energizer Bunny AKA Betty from PA
Chef
Post Card

these are all hikers I have met during my hike and had the pleasure of hiking with for at least a short time.

Thanks,

David (Snickers)

FDR was seen heading for the pub in Carratunk/The Forks, a few weeks ago.

**Cheesewhiz** · 10-11-2006, 19:34

FDR finished on the 17th of Sept. Keystone finished on the 5th

I was day hiking on Katahdin today and around a dozen hikers summited including Little Spoon who I gave a ride to town. It was cold and cloudy at the summit. Most of them are staying at the Econo Lodge in Millinocket tonight and maybe for a few days.

She did. I saw her in the 100 mile wilderness near Rainbow Lake on the 6th. She said she was heading for Gorham, so I imagine she is still hiking.

cool, glad to hear that. I met her way back on April 1st at the Cheese Factory campsite.

Also another thru that will probably if not already, flip, Has anyone seen:
Eagle- retired marine, finishing triple crown w/ artifical hip, he was having a hard time w/ the heat and humidity in late july in va.

**Cheesewhiz** · 10-17-2006, 16:13

I saw Eagle in Monson before the hundred mile wilderness, He was heading south back to Springer and finishing up his Triple Crown right with a yo-yo. that old coot cracks me up. He was carrying a portable DVD player and nothing but John Wayne movies.

She said that she didn't want to be "rushed", so summited early. She was headed south.

**Tipper** · 10-17-2006, 17:45

I read an article about Energizer Bunny from her local paper that said she had completed her hike. No news about Chef.

**Frolicking Dinosaurs** · 10-17-2006, 17:54

Does anyone know what happened to a young girl going by the name dinosaur? I met her at trail days. No one seems to know where she is or if she finished... did she get off the trail?

She was a relatively thin, tall, short-haired blonde with glasses, whose hiking partner was a somewhat wilder/louder short-haired brunette (no glasses) named Hellbender (after some water arthropod akin to helagrammites, I believe). I met them @ Miss Janet's. I had the impression they were lesbian partners, but never was told that directly. They were posting in registers all the way through Maine; I believe that they did summit pre-October. Is this who you're asking about, FD?

**Frolicking Dinosaurs** · 10-17-2006, 18:08

The blue writing in my post is a link to a pic of dinosaur and her sister from Trail Days. She was hiking with another girl and my 'gay-dar' did go off when I spoke with them together.
