Taking a break on this ascent that starts the hike North
- I arrived at Pinecreek Outfitters at about noon
- My shuttle driver was Chuck Dillon himself
- great ride...good stories:
- He warned me about "hide behinds"
- Told a hilarious story of lost hikers from Philadelphia
- Told me of reports of coyotes
- He dropped me at the Southern Terminus at 12:43PM
- I registered on the trail - last people through - 2 days ago
- Chuck also said this ascent was easy...
