I think of you as a backpacker who hiked the JMT.

I certainly don't think everyone who hikes the JMT is clueless - if you think that's so I'm also insulting my friend who I mentioned in the same post... who is a backpacker like me.

The folks who thru hike with a singleminded goal and don't stop for lightning or scenery - they don't care about the backpacking, they want the goal - are clueless about the rest of the mountain range.

Forgive my poor wording, but that's all I really meant.
