    As a woman hiker I do not want people putting my name online along with where I am and what I am doing. People should keep this in mind when posting names without permission.
    I don't even bother sharing that information on the trail. I'm friendly, but I leave the details out.

    That's him. Thanks. I wonder if I botched his name or if he changed it.

    One gallon got his name years ago. He ate 2 of the half gallon boxes of ice cream at the store next to Ironmasters.

    Yo-yoer Brian (no trail name I am told) was at 501 this afternoon after having hiked with Karl Meltzer part of the morning. He was actually moving faster than Karl today.

    The Vermont Mafia was in Manchester a few days ago. Default was not feeling well, so they zeroed awhile.

    Is he on the second leg of the Yo Yo or just completing the thru?

    He's on the second leg of the YoYo. I would guess he is around the area of Glasgow, VA about now. That is if his leg is doing alright. It was starting to bother him when he came through Duncannon.

    AWESOME!!!!
    My apologizes to the southbounders whom I couldn't follow through on shuttles because of illness and car problems. My thoughts and prayers are with you on completing of your journey.

    Gave a lift to Beast a few days back in Pawling NY. He had a buddy come join him on the trail for a bit. Seemed to be in really good spirits and looking forward to getting down south and into some real terrain again.
