The Great Gadget Contest!

Brainstorming on the kick off gathering for 2001.  After this years hugely 
successfull light weight stove contest I'm trying to think of the next one.  
There was one person who took one of the tiny flash lights and stuck some 
velcro on it and the bill of their hat so they could mount it there to shine 
on tasks and free up their hands and mouth.  A great gadget idea.  So how 
about a great gadget contest?  It will be judged on creativity, multiple 
usage, light weight, functionality, durability, ability to get you out of a 
fix, . .  .   .    .   .    .  I'm starting to look for some good gadgets to 
give away as prizes.

The third Annual Day Zero PCT Kick Off Gathering (ADZPCTKOG) is hereby tentiti
vely set for April 27 -29, with primary activities tentitively occuring on 
Saturday, April 28th at Lake Morena Campground.  All of you 2001'ers, 
planning your schedules, make note and try to join us.  All of you 2000'ers 
come on down and give the 2001'ers the benefit of your experiences and 
thereby repay a tiny amount of the trail magic you found out there.

Best regards,

Greg "Strider" Hummel
