I'll have to hold my ballot until next Monday. Maybe we should have these be part of each trip report.

RE: ECT Superlatives/Vote
You get the "Best to meet at the trailhead" award! ;-)

skiracer and gojo get fastest hiker from what I've seen.

skiracer also gets "most fashion coordinated clothing and gear" award. Sorry hon, I've just got to give you a hard time.

jerbear is the "most prepared" fellow I've seen.

Every one I have met so far is a gear head in one way or another.

ECT originally stood for "East Coast Trip"

I am not sure, but it may now stand for "East Coast Trekkers"

RE: ECT Superlatives/Vote
A few question for people that attend the ECT.


1) Do you hike together? I know I would, because I would want to talkt o all of you and get to know yah.

2) Do you do group gear? Like someone carries a stove, and someone brings a water pump. I think I would share with you guys, to lower my pack weight.

3)Do you group cook?

Ghost also gets "cleanest hiker". He never gets dirty. I don't think I've ever seen him sweat either. It's amazing!

RE: ECT Superlatives/Vote
I left out the "most colorfull atire" section cause we all get pretty grungy.
I'm gonna give "Neatest" to both Rad & Cockroach.
Their gear is always nice and clean even at the end of the trip.

RE: ECT Superlatives/Vote
When did this change occur? Did I miss the notice? Did trolling bring this about?

I would need to know you all alittle bit more before I could pass judge.

But I could easily award Ski the best dressed/ luckiest camera award if it exsisted.

Rad, I'm still not sure if I like the new name. I think over time it will fit in but you'll always be "Rad".
Kinda like CX, Warf Rat, Trail Spring, Wild Child, etc, will always be Tarp Rat.
