Hmmm. I think if you walked the trail as it was then, then you walked it,
and it counts. Heck, they relo sections of trail every year, usually
*after* the thru-hikers have been there. Does that mean they have to go
back and hike all that year's relo's before they can get the patch? Yeah,
right.

Now this is a brilliant idea. Simple, to-the-point, meaningful. A classic
example of thinking outside the box. Three cheers.
