Yes!! Finally!! the PCTA is now accepting long distance permit requests!!. they warn that your permit start and end points must be on the trail and specific or they can not issue it. Campo, CA is the start obviously so would the end point be Manning, BC, or is it a town before that in washington??

Car insurance: What are you doing with yours? Geico has a storage plan...70% refund of your premium for 6 months. Anyone got a better idea?

Called about California Fire Permits today (which you are supposed to have on you if you're using a stove of having a campfire) They have recently hired a new internet vendor and the permit link will be updated sometime before April. (the form posted currently is for 2010!) The nice woman on the phone said you can also walk into any National Forest office in CA and get one in person.

Shall we have the ol' trekking pole discussion? I carry Black Diamond Flint Locks. Nice and light. I've never seen the locking mechanism fail. All in all I think they're pretty awesome.
