[pct-l] Fwd: food strategy,

[Diane Soini of Santa Barbara Hikes]

Did you really mean Snoqualmie Pass? There was a great gas station  
market there with all kinds of groceries plus clothing and shoes (not  
hiking shoes) and books and just about anything and everything,  
including a post office. There was a grocery store, too, but I didn't  
go inside. Are both these gone? Because you could have resupplied  
from the gas station alone in a pinch.
