WHERE IS HE????? SEARCH AND RESCUE NEEDED!!!!!

What ever happened to Hikin-Jim? He didn't take a long hike off a short mountain, did he? Maybe his knee gave out somewhere in the foothills and now he's just a big pile of coyote food.

Maybe some of us on this board can put a little effort into uploading many more trails (common trails) onto this site from the ANF. Well, I guess any trails form Southern Cal can be uploaded. I think I'll upload some of my favorites.

As an avid hiker, I know I can find resources for nearly any r...
