    I hiked the AT back in 07, and many other long distance hikes before and after. I think people are drawn to these types of activities precisely BECAUSE they feel that something is amiss in their...

    I'm skeptical. I don't know why, but I see the hiker instigating this or simply fabricating 90% of it. My guess is that this hiker is a rule monger ( note how he knew there was no hunting on that...

    Why do they need to 'differentiate' between thru-hikers and section hikers on the application, then?

    Why did they need to change the definition, if their giving out only the one patch?

    Not sure I agree with rule #2. It's a good idea, but I don't think it can be a rule. Seems that If I were to bring a tent, why would I ever choose to sleep in a shelter with a bunch of strangers?
