Dick Kelty in Weldon Calif. ( May 1977)

Weldon Cailf.

Dick Kelty ( Yes , founder of Kelty backpacks) talking to hikers of the Pacific Crest Trail at KOA in Weldon May 77. Dick and Nena Sold the Kelty Pack Company in 1982. After that , the pack's quality went down hill ( In my humble opinion) Dick Passed away in 2004 at age 84. Great loss to the long distance hiker comunity

Ricoh SLR,Ricoh 50mm lens,Kodak Ektachrome 64
