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...

Song in my head - Tom Waits - Just the Right Bullets
