More of the 2023 PCT Hiker Survey
In the current Halfwayanywhere's PCT survey there have been inquiries about ageism, homophobia/transphobia, racism, and sexism on the PCT. The data is notable in that even on the PCT these features of the greater society still appear significant. The PCT culture can appear to be utopian or maybe just the best one's imagined world has to offer. People seemingly get along, the surroundings are awe inspiring, and the experiences are hard to surpass.
In the latest Halfway generated 2023 hiker survey the results are extensive. In this post I would like to shine a little light on the results related to age, sexual identity, and race. When I reflect on my experiences on the PCT as the years have gone by I have felt more and more like my hiking partners and I are the 'geezers' based on the other hikers we have encountered on the trail. We have even referred to ourselves as 'Team Geezer' with our tongues firmly planted in our cheeks. We can't really say we have been victims of ageism. We could say we have surprised a few people when we share more of our trail story that ultimately leads to our ages. Age for us doesn't matter all that much.
Tumblr media
'Team Geezer' September 2023
Halfway's 2023 PCT hiker survey includes these comments and data.
Social Issues on the PCT
The Pacific Crest Trail is, for the most part, an amazing place filled with incredible people.
However, just as the trail itself can be not so amazing at times – thunderstorms, fires, horrific weather events – the people, too, can occasionally be awful on the PCT.
Ageism
Overall, 12.5% of hikers experienced ageism on the Pacific Crest Trail. 8.7% experienced ageism from other hikers, 1.0% from people in town, and 2.8% from both their fellow hikers and people in town.
*As ageism was reported by hikers with a wide variety of ages, these percentages encompass all hikers.
Homophobia/Transphobia
Overall, 42.4% of LGBTQIA+ hikers experienced homophobia or transphobia on the Pacific Crest Trail. 9.6% experienced homophobia or transphobia from other hikers, 22.4% from people in town, and 10.4% from both their fellow hikers and people in town.
Racism
Overall, 22.5% of BIPOC hikers experienced racism on the Pacific Crest Trail. 1.3% experienced racism from other hikers, 17.5% from people in town, and 3.8% from both their fellow hikers and people in town.
Sexism
Overall, 53.1% of women experienced sexism or sexual harassment on the Pacific Crest Trail. 12.8% experienced sexism or sexual harassment from other hikers, 15.4% from people in town, and 2.94% from both their fellow hikers and people in town.
These data points are intriguing to me. For one thing this data suggests that the PCT is a kind of microcosm of the larger world. Ageism, Homo and Transphobia, Racism not to ignore sexism lurk even on the trail and the towns hikers pass through. At the beginning I described this data as intriguing but I should also mention that it feels disappointing too. The PCT is a place where one likes to think a certain immunity exists from these threats, attitudes, and general misgivings. Nevertheless some of societies uglier features, based on the data, still weasel their way into people's hiking experiences
Ageism faired better than homophobia and transphobias where when the data is taken together 42.4% of LGBTQIA+ hikers noted some form of negativity about their identity/preferences. BIPOC hikers felt they experienced the most (17.5%) racism from townspeople. As more people of color get on the trail it may dampen another ugly societal feature. Sadly just over half the women who submitted their survey said they experienced sexism or sexual harassment on the PCT. Some of the sexism and/or harassment came not just from townspeople but fellow hikers too. The percentages are nearly even.
The PCT hiker surveys are valuable in so many ways. It seems that in looking over this particular data surrounding ageism, racism, sexism, and homophobia/transphobia, we can use it as a call to action. As members of the PCT community we must be reminded through the survey responses that the PCT is as susceptible to some of the same social shortcomings of the world found off the trail. If we can take that understanding and apply it toward actively working to change such attitudes then the trail can be a welcoming place for more individuals than the survey results currently suggest. We may have to wait for the next survey and the one after that before we will really know if greater acceptance and a willingness to understand others is taking place. How we measure our collective progress is yet another product of Halfway's valuable surveys. Stealing a little from Woody Guthrie...we cannot forget that 'this trail is your trail and this trail is my trail, it belongs to you and me...' In reality we don't own it but we are responsible for what happens both on and off of the PCT and that can be a real source of pride.

🇺🇲 🏦 🚨 U.S. RETAIL SALES DOWN 3.1 pct YEAR-ON-YEAR FROM 2022
U.S. retail sales, excluding consumer vehicles, grew 3.1% year-on-year for the period from Nov. 1st 2023 to Dec. 24th 2023, according to preliminary data from the MasterCard Spending pulse report issued on Tuesday.
Previously, the U.S. economy recorded a 7.6% year-on-year expansion, writes Xinhua News Agency.
In further detail, online retail sales grew by 6.3% year-on-year, while brick-and-mortar retail only grew by 2.2% year-on-year.
Restaurant sales saw a year-on-year expansion of 7.8% for the same period, while sales in Jewelry shrank by 2% and sales in electronics were down 0.4%.
Data was based on non-inflation adjusted aggregate sales activity from the MasterCard payments network in combination with survey-based estimates for certain payment forms including cash and check.
Further, the U.S. National Retail Foundation forecast for holiday spending for Nov. and Dec. 2023 expected growth of a projected 3-4% over 2022 to between $957.3 billion to $966.6 billion.

https://news.abs-cbn.com/news/12/30/23/ltfrb-jeepney-consolidation-rate-in-ncr-at-33-pct
ABS-CBN: ~33% of jeepneys in Metro Manila have consolidated, according to LTFRB.
Meanwhile, [LTFRB NCR Director Tamayo] said consolidated UV Express units are at 3,259 or 44.3 percent.
Combined, they make up 17,152 or only 35 percent of Public Utility Vehicles in NCR.
This has reinforced the LTFRB’s position that there will be no transportation crisis come January 2024, even in NCR, where 47.3 percent of routes are already being operated by consolidated transport entities, according to the agency.
Other modes of public transportation will also be there to serve the riding public. Although some, like taxis and Transportation Network Vehicle Services (TNVS) may be more costly.
[OTC Chairman] Ortega admits that some passengers may have to bear this burden temporarily.
The LTFRB said it is still in the process of collating the consolidation figures from all over the country as they come in. As per the Department of Transportation’s last update, the nationwide PUV consolidation rate was at 70 percent.

Halfway Anywhere: a PCT Gem
The 2023 PCT Hiker survey results that has been compiled for more than the past decade has been posted by Mac on his website Halfway Anywhere. Mac has been putting out the survey for the past eleven years and each year it gets better and more revealing. In 2023 there were 750 responses. We will share reactions to some of the data in the time ahead. For now, taking a look at hiker demographics seems like a great place to begin. I have copied Mac's data illustrations into this post.
Demographics
Beginning by looking at gender males still dominate the number of hikers on the PCT. However it appears more and more women are finding their way to the trail. As society gets more comfortable with sexual identification it appears that respondents to the survey are identifying preferences that otherwise may have not been identified. This is another form of diversity among PCT hikers.
PCT Hiker Gender
57.9% – Male
40.2% – Female
1.6% – Non-binary
0.3% – Genderqueer
Tumblr media
PCT Hiker Age
The 25-29 year olds were the majority in the 2023 class. My age group was adequately represented but not as well as the 25-34 year olds.
0.9% – < 20
12.1% – 20-24
26.9% – 25-29
21.2% – 30-34
11.3% – 35-39
9.8% – 40-49
8.0% – 50-59
8.3% – 60-70
1.5% – 70+
Tumblr media
PCT Hiker Race
It was surprising to me that just over 88% of the respondents to the survey identified as White. Despite efforts to diversify the PCT and the PCT experience, Caucasians in 2023 are still in the majority of PCT hikers. This is a fairly consistent trend over the past seven years of Halfway's data.
88.7% – White
3.8% – Asian
3.6% – Two or More Races
1.5% – Hispanic or Latino
0.3% – American Indian or Alaska Native
0.3% – Middle Eastern
1.9% – Prefer not to answer
Tumblr media
PCT Hiker Education
Just over 70% of the 2023 class identified as having a Bachelor or Master's degree. That suggests a well educated group of hikers. I am the first to say college is not everything or as a result sets someone on a higher plain than the rest of society. I find it interesting how many of the responses were from a large majority of college graduates or people with some college background.
46.9% – Bachelor’s degree
23.7% – Master’s Degree
11.7% – Some college
4.7% – High school or equivalent
3.5% – Associate degree
2.4% – PhD
1.3% – JD
1.3% – MBA
0.9% – Trade School
0.8% – 12th grade or less
0.7% – MD
0.1% – CPA
0.1% – DCS/DEC
0.1% – DDS
0.1% – DO
0.1% – DPT
0.1% – DVM
0.1% – EdD
1.1% – Prefer not to answer
Tumblr media
As you can see the hiker survey has much data to mine. This is the tip of a very large iceberg that can be found at Halfwayanywhere.com. We will continue with reactions to some of the data that stood out to us in later posts. We hope you will find it as interesting if not a bit surprising as we do.

Today is the 3rd day of the conference. It’s going well so far. It involves far more role playing than I imagined it would. And I’m not really doing the role playing. My Ph.D. is in ‘Counselor Education and Supervision’. Essentially I am learning how to teach future therapists to be therapists. So this conference has involved us Ph.D. students doing a lot of the educating to masters students. The class I am taking this semester is “Internship I” and what I am supposed to be doing for my internship is helping teach a Master’s level counseling course. (Which reminds me-I need to email the professor because that course is not showing up on my dashboard). Regardless, my point is this conference has been way more involved than I thought it would be as I am leading counselor role-playing sessions. Tomorrow is, thankfully, the last day of the conference because I am exhausted.
The conference has taken up a lot of my brain space this week but in the background I’ve really been missing people (as always). I was thinking this morning that I ‘miss treatment’ but I don’t think I really miss treatment. I miss the support I got from treatment. I miss the PCT’s and the nurse I mentioned. I even miss the person who is the assistant clinical director because even though she is a hard ass I know she cared about me and she was always honest with me. The treatment center runs three weekly virtual support groups. Two are ANAD groups and one is specifically an alumni group. The alumni group is on Wednesday evenings. I think I will attend the one tonight. Various primary therapists leads all of these groups. It’ll be nice to see one of them.
But I’m really missing the support I had while I was in treatment. I don’t want to go back to treatment (I won’t) but I don’t think I can do this by myself for much longer. It’s so hard and it’s exhausting. And it really hurts.

BUÜ, patent şampiyonları listesinde bir kez daha zirvede
New Post has been published on https://pazaryerigundem.com/haber/168833/buu-patent-sampiyonlari-listesinde-bir-kez-daha-zirvede/
BUÜ, patent şampiyonları listesinde bir kez daha zirvede
Tumblr media
Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi (BUÜ), patent başvuru ve tescil çalışmalarında yükseköğretim kurumları arasındaki konumunu pekiştiriyor. Son 4 yıldır patent başvurularında Türkiye’nin en iyi üniversiteleri arasında yer alan BUÜ, 2023 yılı sıralamasında da en iyi performans gösteren 10 üniversiteden biri oldu.
BURSA (İGFA) – Türk Patent ve Marka Kurumu tarafından açıklanan verilerden elde edilen Türkiye’nin 2023 yılı Patent raporu açıklandı. Patentraporu.com sitesinde yer alan verilere göre yurtiçi ve yurt dışı patent başvurularında en iyi performans gösteren kurum ve kuruluşlar listelendi. BUÜ, üniversiteler arasında yapılan sıralamaya bir kez daha damga vurdu. 2023 yılında 19 patent başvurusu yaparak ilk 10 yükseköğretim kurumu arasında giren BUÜ, 6 patent tescili ile en iyi 20 üniversite arasında gösterildi. Uluslararası patent başvurularında (PCT) 2023 yılında yaptığı 10 patent başvurusu ile ilk 12’ye giren BUÜ, 2023 yılı Avrupa patent başvuru sayılarına göre 20. sırada gösterilirken, tüm zamanlardaki Avrupa patent başvurularında ise en iyi 14 üniversite arasındaki yerini korudu. Aynı listede 2023 yılı Amerika Birleşik Devletleri (USA) patent başvurularında ise ilk 15’te yer alan BUÜ, US başvurusu genel sıralamasında ise 13. sırada gösterildi.
TEKSTİLDE TÜRKİYE ŞAMPİYONLUĞU
2023 yılı patent raporunda Türkiye’nin teknoloji yetkinliği baz alınarak oluşturulan patent başvuruları ve tescil rakamları da açıklandı. BUÜ, toplam 20 kategoride hazırlanan listedeki 5 farklı sektör sıralamasında yine en iyi 10 üniversite arasında yer alma başarısı gösterdi. Eklemeli İmalat, Siber Güvenlik, Gıda ve İçecek ile Otomotiv başlıklarında en iyi yükseköğretim kurumları sıralamasında bulunan BUÜ, Tekstil kategorisinde ise en iyi performans gösteren üniversitesi oldu. Bu kategoride daha önce de ilk sıralarda yer alma başarısı gösteren BUÜ, 2023 yılında gerçekleştirdiği 21 patent/faydalı model başvurusu ile zirvenin sahibi oldu.
Tumblr media
PATENT TİCARİLEŞTİRMEDE EN İYİ 5 ÜNİVERSİTE ARASINDA
Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2023 yılının ticarileştirme şampiyonu üniversiteleri sıralamasında 3 Ticarileştirme/Sözleşme sayısı ve 3 Lisanslanan/Devir Edilen Patent/Faydalı Model sayısı ile en iyi 5 yükseköğretim kurumu arasında kendisine yer buldu. BUÜ, tüm zamanlardaki ticarileştirme sıralamasında ise en iyi 7 üniversite arasında gösterildi.
ULUTEK TEKNOPARK ZİRVEYİ BIRAKMIYOR
Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi Görükle Kampüsü içerisinde faaliyetlerini sürdüren ULUTEK Teknopark, en iyi teknoparklar arasındaki yerini giderek sağlamlaştırıyor. Patentli startup firmalara ev sahipliği yapan teknoparklar sıralamasında da ilk 6 arasında gösterildi.
AZİM VE KARARLILIKLA ÇALIŞMAYA DEVAM!
Elde edilen başarının tesadüf olmadığını vurgulayan BUÜ Rektörü Prof. Dr. Ferudun Yılmaz, son 5 yıldır bu konuda yoğun bir çalışma yürüttüklerinin altını çizdi. Önceki yönetim döneminden başlayarak üniversite içerisindeki mevcut bilgi birikimi ve potansiyelin ortaya çıkarılması adına gayret gösterdiklerini aktaran Prof. Dr. Ferudun Yılmaz; “Üniversitemizin ve akademisyenlerimizin potansiyelinin gerçek anlamda ortaya çıkarılması için çabalıyoruz. Yarım asra yaklaşan bir deneyimi bulunan Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi, akademik birikim ve proje üretme kabiliyeti ile çok daha iyisini yapabilecek düzeydedir. Teknoloji Transfer Ofisimiz vasıtasıyla üniversitemizin bilimsel ve akademik verisinin bir tomografisini çektik. Yüzlerce akademik çalışmanın patent başvurusunu yaptık. 5 yıl öncesine kadar 60 olan patent sayımız bugün 400’leri geçti. Bu sayının çok daha yukarılara çıkacağına inanıyoruz. 2023 yılı patent başvuru listesinde zirvede yer almaktan, Bursa’mıza ve Türkiye’ye bu anlamda katkı koyan yükseköğretim kurumları arasında bulunmaktan gurur duyuyoruz. Bu başarı; akademisyenlerimizin ve onlara yol gösteren yöneticilerimizin desteği ile geldi. Her birine ayrı ayrı teşekkür ediyorum. Bir araştırma üniversitesi olan Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi, bugüne kadar olduğu gibi bundan sonra da aynı kararlılık ve azim ile çalışmaya devam edecektir” dedi.

🇬🇧 🚨UK ECONOMY SHRINKS BY 0.3 PCT FOR THE MONTH OF OCTOBER
The economy of the United Kingdom shrank by 0.3% month-on-month for the month of October, 2023.
Contractions were recorded across all three main sectors of the economy.
Services fell by 0.2%, being the main contributor to the fall in the U.K.'s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Production output fell by 0.8%, and Construction fell by 0.5%, according to the U.K.'s Office for National Statistics (ONS).
"Services were the biggest driver of the fall with drops in IT (information technology), legal firms and film production -- which fell back after a couple of strong months," Darren Morgan, director of economic statistics at the ONS, is quoted as saying.
"These were also compounded by widespread falls in manufacturing and construction, which fell partly due to the poor weather," Morgan added.
For the three months leading up to October, the U.K.'s economy showed no growth.
Increases in services, led by engineering, film production and education, which recovered from the impact of summer strikes, were offset by falls in both manufacturing and housebuilding, Morgan said.
