If I recall correctly, it was not long after Dorn took over as editor. Must have been at least six or seven years ago, give or take a few years...


If you could find the specific article I'd really like to read it myself so I understand the context in which it was said. I've been reading Backpacker for several years and although I may not agree with everything I generally find it enjoyable. I just have to decide for myself which things I agree with and which I don't (just like most publications). Not that I don't believe you but I do find it hard to believe Dorn would publicly make such an absurd comment. It's one of those things I would have to see for myself. It's hard to comment on without reading the entire article.
