Aaron and Jen................

As with previous issues, I was totally captivated with the photography in Issue 15. I would guess people would read the magazine just to see the photos even if they aren't into the hiking/backpacking scene. Do camera buffs have any idea what they are missing?? I mean,TG has some awesome photographers!

Special thanks to Paul Magnanti for "The Joy of Day Hiking". Amen to all your thoughts concerning fitting in some concentrated time out on the trail. You are preaching to the choir!
