Yeah, but everyone has different priorities in what they search for. I
enjoy reading about people's hikes, approaches to hiking, etc. but...
I'm quite comfortable with my own approach to hiking so unless I was
looking for specific advice (in which case I'd pose a question to the
list) I'm not apt to go looking. Instead I just 'graze' on the pasture
of stuff AT-L gives me rather than research the library of WB. My
serious research is in other areas of my life.
