[pct-l] us shippers

[Ron]

I recommend avoiding post office whenever possible.  This is no reflection
on thier service but you may find yourself taking unwanted zeros waiting for
them to open after weekends, etc.  Best to mail to trail angel or
hiker-friendly business.  Plus, unless you ave specific dietary needs it is
fairly simple to resupply along the way.

You should not  have a problem finding trail angels to ship your stuff for
you.
Buy what you need down here, use the USA  post office priority flat rate
boxes
(if it fits it ships any where for a flat price, no matter the weight)
prepay
the boxes for the trail angel, and they will ship for you.
send me an email, I'm a Canuck living down  here north of los angeles. born
in
Calgary, raised in T.O.
We may be able to work out a arrangement.
I may be going to the kick off, so you might be able to get a ride down from
the
palmdale area, just north of LA, as you pass through.

We're in BC, Canada and it will cost at least twice as much to ship boxes
from here.  We'd like to visit some spots on our way to the trail so we're
planning to rent a vehicle and drive down.  What I'm wondering is if anybody
knows of any commercial package services that would hold boxes and ship them
out at preset dates?  I suppose it would have to be a nominal additional
cost or it wouldn't save anything over sending them from Canada.
