I saw a guy coming down the Snow Lake trail last summer carrying a holstered pistol. I know that's a realy xtreme and dangerous trail, but it made me laugh. My wife, on the otherhand, was really creeped out. Funny, that guy prolly thought it was good to pack heat on the trail to protect the wymn folk and other innocents, but in fact, he was likely having an unintended opposite effect. Of course, his piece wasn't concealed.
