  I have requested to be removed from this list two weeks ago. Anyone out
there know how to get this done?

    Well, I don't wish to scare anyone who has tender knees, but I would
suggest if your trek ends coming down Tooth Ridge, do NOT go horseback
riding at Clark's Fork the previous day. Riders are told to put 60-70% of
their weight on their legs rather than their butt. Bracing in the saddle
really stresses the knees in different places. (I had to be litter-carried
the last two miles down the ridge on July 4, 2003.)
    If you are over 50, I strongly recommend lots of stairwell climbs and
descents, as well as quadriceps, hamstring and calf exercises at the gym.
