[pct-l] The 'other bar' project

[tahoe.cat at verizon.net (Bill & Cathy)]

There must be more than one "three points" on the trail. We got to "three
points" at hwy 2 in the San Gabriel's then hiked two miles down to
"Newcomb's Ranch" Great restaurant and bar with pool table. Need to go back
to three points to continue my hike.  "Be Prepared" Ground Pounder Bill
