[pct-l] Warner Springs Resort

[Paul Robison]

much of that last email made no sense to me.

... but on the subject of warner springs;  i spoke on the phone to them 2 weeks 
ago and they said they still had a PCT rate.
... looks like another 200$ needs to be added to my budget    ; )  Echo said 
there is no chance in hell we can skip this stop;  personally i would... except 
the food was so delicious.  we're going stoveless this time, so those meals will 
be well sought after.

Has anyone heard how things are at Warner Springs Resort now that the Indians 
have taken it over?  I think they finished buying it last summer.  I wonder if 
they will have the PCT hiker discount for staying there.  


I was hoping to roll in there before the April Kickoff and do some hiker support 
out on the trail like I do every year.  It is a nice base camp for adventures 
into hikerdom.  Of course, you do have to be careful about the prowling Saber 
Tooth Mountain Lions that inhabit the area.  They see tracks of the them all the 
time out there.  And there is the world famous Clinton C. Clark tree at campsite 
22 on the PCT loop around Warner Springs.  


I remember years ago I did a short day hike from the resort around the loop back 
to the resort.  My female hiking buddies left me out on the trail as they 
practically ran around the loop.  I almost got eaten by a Saber Tooth.  It was 
only my Trail Pirate cunning and voracity that got me barely back to the 
resort.  In fact I had to catch a hitchhike the last mile back to the resort 
with a pretty young woman.  She felt sorry for me crying beside the road and 
stopped to pick me up.

Speaking of Clinton C. Clark, I think I have a message he sent me years ago.  I 
will have to look it up in my files.  If I find it I will bring it to the April 
Kickoff.  I might have one from Ray Jardine too.

Your obedient servant.

Switchback the Trail Pirate
