Entry under TOP STATE HIKES (newest edition I received yesterday):

You still buy that piece of fire starter?  And they wonder why their subscriptions are falling...

Yeah, I noticed that. Pretty funny. How in the world could that be the most often reported favorite hike in Alabama.

If there's a better hiking magazine, I'd love to hear it.

Honestly, this isn't sarcasm.

My main concern is somebody accidentally going out on the Pinhoti loop and getting 4.5 miles in up 3000 feet of elevation and expecting to find waterfalls. Somebody could get hurt.

Here's the trip they are referring to online. At least the driving directions take you to Huntsville.

Since they don't check the facts on articles, I guess I shoud send them my picture of the Georgia Big Foot, so they can get some real headlines !   Evil
