Lone Wolf doesn't want to be a trail legend, but folks seem to want to make it happen against his will.
How about you?
Yes he is, and he better get over it.
No, just because he doesn't want it.
Who is Lone Wolf?
There is no such thing as a trail legend.

Aw hell ...I'll take a chance:
All those in favor of Lone Wolf for the honorary title of "TRAIL LEGEND" raise your hands ....
'Slogger
The more I learn ...the more I realize I don't know.
No. I'm just a big mouth jerk. Thank you.
Unlike some, he's not even a legend in his own mind so why should he be in ours. Besides, a legend can have a positive or negative conotation. Where would he fit in?

Nah ...it's gotta be the Trail Legend thing.
There are no honorary titles for the one you mentioned.

Oh, let me add that it requires greater than 50% to award the title. If the other three answers combined are greater than 50%, he don't get the title

Nope. Those that really know me, know better. I'm just blue-blazing hiker trash.
anyone who has bacon in their pack deserves legend status....save me a slice
Why make him a legend? I am in favor of giving people the title of 'legend', but that is reserved for people whose story precedes them. Prior to my involvement in the hiking community, I had heard of Shaffer, Gatewood, and Irwin. Their achievements are known beyond the hiking community (and I'm sure there are others!) and spoken of with a reverence and awe. I hope to meet L Wolf on my upcoming thru hike. I could only hope to come close to the achievements I have heard of (16,000 trail miles?, friend to the trail, diligent trail advocate to name but a few). Now that I have a vague idea of who he is, I, personally, am in favor of legendary status, but until his story permeates the outside world, I fear he may only be legendary to those who truly know him.
I liked his bumber stickers on his water bottle, so I vote yea.
How do you vote more than once?Originally Posted by SGT Rock

Not that the poll is leaning in any particular direction Nevertheless, even though LW's self description is probably accurate, he should be admitted into the AT Hall of Fame and made to give a speech before many.Originally Posted by Groucho
