HAZ Identification

I heard Matt mention that HAZites in the past used Arizona Flag patches or bandannas attached to their packs as a methond of identity. Is this a common practice and how many of you out there have done this? It would be awesome to spot a HAZer from the patch or at least some sort of ID. Maybe we can get Joe interested in designing and selling patches right here on the site, in the store! :idea:

OK, so according to the author page, 5 more hikes moves me from #113 to the top 50.

Also, I find that leaving the writing to those with the proper vernacular is better. I tend to be, shall we say, Cro-magnon in my writing style, which would leave those whose eyes fall upon my dossier a bit dissatisfied. So, to you great Shakespeares out there, I "WILL" lend you my ears, and hear of your journeys, and follow in your footsteps. Literally.

I would like to be seen as part of the entity you all have established here, even if it is for a quick "Salutations." As for me, I am the guy with the faded #5 Nomar Red Sox cap on. I don't go hiking without it.

I can hardly wait to see what kind of group hike can do that! Not sure I would want to go though!

I still have my HAZ sticker in the rear window of my jeep. I also have one of the white HAZ t-shirts. I don't wear it often so it's in good shape. Tom gave me a HAZ patch. I'm not sure which pack to sew it on.

Now I told you at the time George, you had to do better than free-climb the South face of Weaver's needle to get two... remember?

In response to azhiker96's reply: Just put velcro on your patch and all your packs and you can move it to whichever one that you need...

Now Tom...are you making members work for a patch? I guess that's better than what you were going to do...sell them for $49.95 each and tell people it included a full year's membership on HAZ!

I like the velcro idea or maybe even figure some way to put a back on the patch that has a good strong clip on it.
