The Scott Williamson 2013.08.26 Latergram, Pacific Crest Trail Mile 1949, just past noon today, I ran into Scott Williamson on the PCT, south-bounding. A lot of people believe he’s further south than he is, and others didn’t believe I’d met him, so I got a photo. Seems like a really cool guy! Chatted with me pleasantly even though he was busy trying to set a record! Note how he’s not carrying much at all, but he is carrying a Euroschirm Liteflex umbrella! Read more

The Manchurian 2013.08.19 Latergram, Pacific Crest Trail Sharing my hotspot with the Manchurian, mile 1801. His blog is pjgspct.blogspot.com I’ll never forget giving him his trail name near mile 100 of the PCT. It was a big tongue-in-cheek moment where he must have thought I was an idiot and I went ahead and let him think that. He told me he was from Manchester (England) and so I said, “OH! A Manchurian!” (Mancunian). He might have even tried to correct me, but then realized that Manchurian was pretty damn hilarious on several levels, and kept the name. Read more
