Story of Dav'es trip North same year as me. I campped a few nights with him and shared my stove after his Bleuit Blue Bomb Clogged. Interesting book if you can handle David's " Zen" Writing Style. A Bit too " Kung Fu" for my taste.... He wrote about me and a few other folks that were on the PCT in 77. Still a good piece of " History " of the PCT Early years.
