I thought Mogli was that chimp on Dennis Miller's show. The chimp retired and the program folded soon after that. Guess he really was carrying the show.

No offense to all the trail greats, but I would stay with all the folks I hiked with last year. God I miss them...
But if I had to choose four people:
George Carlin, Robin Willams, Old school Eddie Murphy, and Jesus.
At least we would all have a good laugh.
Wayne Gregory
Dana Bridger
Patrick Smith
and I am torn on hiking chicks... peaches from 2003, aliencreeperpod, or kdiggidy aka digits from 2004.
What a cool topic
John Muir
Jeremiah Johnson
Ted Nugent
Bruce Lee
Donald Trump
There would be no snoring in that shelter that night you better believe!!
2nd choice of 5 would be.....
Homemade wonderlust
Hannah Barron (the real deal)
Shemane Nugent
Carmen Electra
Janis Joplin
No snoring sounds to be heard that night for sure
I would choose my sisters. We make up the entire four count. LOL. The reason why I would choose them is simply because my family has no Appalachian Trail experience. It's hard to discuss my experiences with them when they do not know what I am trying to share. I think the experience is important. It can get pretty lonely off trail when no one around you understands anything about your life. The trail has a culture of its own. It is like having a community. It brings out the realness of people. I also aim to share my experience and memories. There is nothing quite like it. It changes everything about you after you finish. Nothing back home is the same anymore.
Neat thread to see resurrected. Interesting to read through nearly 18 years of responses. Eclectic, to say the least. And I agree that Birthright nailed it: identified thoughts and feelings I've had since my first experience on the trail, yet have never been able to articulate. Well said.
As for me? Hard to say really -- I can think of so many fun, interesting, entertaining, intelligent, thoughtful and thought-provoking people with whom I wish I could spend an evening on the trail....
Funny thing is, I already have. I just never knew their names.
