[pct-l] South-bound questions

[wandering_bob at comcast.net (Bob Bankhead)]

Actually, there is no public transportation into Winthrop. The closest
Greyhound is in Okanogan, quite a ways east along highway 20. The airport is
private - small planes only. No train. There is a new, local shuttle taxi
http://www.methownet.com/mountaintransporter.html but you're still 165 miles
from Seattle. I got caught there when a freak, record-setting storm forced
even the local hunters down out of the wilderness in '97. My dear wife had
to drive 7 hours from Portland, OR to rescue me.
