[pct-l] McKenzie Pass Hwy 242 to reopen Sat. Aug 16th 7 AM.

Good news for those that feel a pull to town, but really a hitch at this point is really not necessary.  It is just 12 miles up trail to one of the best trail stops along the trail in Big Lake Youth Camp.  You have to send a package ahead, but they really treat hikers well!
