Thanks;
The person that had AMS was fine. We did have the burgers/fries and they were great! I talked to a JMT hiker that didn't complete his hike (due to injury) but was there to pick up his buddies. I said "too bad you were not able to complete it with them". His response was great - "it is OK, gives me a reason to come back next year".
I have been reading this message board for months - a great source of info! I am thinking of the High Sierra Trail for next year.
