NoUgly: On the summit, someone in the group that morning related that a year ago, they were in the A16 store (maybe San Diego), and saw the Mile, Mile-and-a-Half video (and I think talked with one of the participants). The story continued that this person had never even heard of the JMT. But it inspired them so much that here a year later, they were completing the JMT.

Does that describe your friends, or someone else?

Fun stuff! cool
