[pct-l] PCT resupply

[Jeffrey Olson]

I'd spent the night at one of the prettiest forested campsites I 
remember - on Trout Lake Creek.  There is a bridge over the creek and 
about five or six separated flat spots down from the bridge.  I got to 
FR 88 at about 7:30 in the morning, and had way too much energy to stand 
around throwing rocks at signs - better to walk. So, yes, I'd walk it 
again.  And I'm not complaining.  At Onion Valley I had just settled 
down on the bear boxes on my sleeping pad, ready to wait for the end of 
the day to hitch out at the end of a hike in 05 when a couple came out 
and offered me a ride, and took me to Bishop, the opposite direction 
they were headed.  Luck of the draw both times...
