This now inactive group was founded in 1999 to provide members a forum for advice, resources, and comradery for those who have hiked, aspire to hike, or dream of hiking the John Muir Trail in the high Sierra Nevada of California. With the then pending erasure of all user-created content from Yahoo Groups, on December 16, 2019, this group was transferred to Groups.io. Please join us there at the following hot link John Muir Trail . The hot link URL is https://groups.io/g/jmt for those who need the printed link.Members here as of November 1, 2019, should now be enrolled as subscribers of, or received invitations to subscribe to, our Groups.io JMT group. If you want to have membership in Groups.io (it involves having an email address and establishing a password), you can do this by registering at Groups.io . That's one way that you can lay the groundwork to subscribe to our new group at the hot link in the first paragraph above.Again, with the erasure of all user-created content in Yahoo Groups and the successful transfer of this group to Groups.io, the only purpose of this group is to point to John Muir Trail , an active group.
