[pct-l] stealth camping around Hwy 138, mile 516

[david at emeraldlake.com (David Plotnikoff)]

Hello from a long-time list lurker and section hiker.

Does anyone recall anyplace other than the former Jack Fair home where one
can nap for a few hours after descending from the Tejon Ranch section of
trail? My intention is this: I''d like to hit the highway in midafternoon,
camel up and load my water at the Jack Fair/Skaggs/Hikertown faucet at the
fence then go *somewhere else* to nap in the shade until midnight and then
begin walking the aqueduct. If I can't get water at the house, I'll try
Neenach School first and then the store as a backup.

Does anyone know of a place for a safe, quiet siesta in the vicinity? I've
perused 40 journals and haven't seen a mention of anyone crashing at the
school or the store.

You may well ask why I read 40 journals (and have 20 more to go). It's
simple: I have to do *something* before getting to Campo in April.

Thank you for your consideration.
