Hello fellow hikers,
It is with a sorrowful note that I bring to you this news. On June 29th, Christian, aka Airferret or Ferret as many know him, died from gunshot wounds to the chest in his hometown of Detroit. His untimely death has been a shock to all who knew him.
I know the time he spent hiking on the Appalachian Trail were like a dream come true for him; he loved every minute spent outdoors, whether on the AT, the Mojave, or overseas.
I am trying to put together a website in his name, with a log sheet for people to post. The web address will be posted here as soon as I can design a website.

Sincerely,
Walter A.

Xtn was an incredible person and a wonderful hiking. I’ll miss our emails and IM’s. But the good thing is that I’ll always remember his smile in the morning when he was breaking camp and getting ready to hike…
