[pct-l] Ashland I-5 question

[judson at jeffnet.org (Judson Brown)]

Get off I-5 at exit 6 (Mt. Ashland). Get on the frontage road that parallels
the freeway on the west side, southbound, in the direction of Mt. Ashland.
There are 2 trailhead that are perhaps a half-mile apart. You'll reach the
southbound one- the one at which he'll be arriving- about 150 yds. before
the right turn to Mt. Ashland. It is on the right hand side of the road, and
last time I was there, it was not signed. It looks like an old jeep road,
which it is. If he gets there before you, he will probably make his way to
Callahan's, which in on the east side of I-5 at exit 6. Hope this helps.

Hi y'all-

I'll be going to meet Darrell in a couple of weeks.  I'm really excited!
He'll have reached the border of California, and I plan to pick him up just
south
of Ashland, OR, where the PCT meets I-5.  Never having been on that route
before, I'm wondering what to expect and how we can be sure not to miss one
another.

Can anyone tell me how the PCT crosses the hwy?  Does it go under?  Is there
any indication for drivers that the PCT is even there?  Will I see it
easily?
I expect that if Darrell gets to the hwy before me, then it will be simple
for me to see him if he waits by the side of the road.  But if I should get
there first, I'd like to park and wait in a spot that is easy for him to get
to,
etc.

I'd be grateful for any advice or suggestions that anyone has.

Thanks so much!


Betsy
