[pct-l] Shuttle Info

[jolson at olc.edu (Jeffrey Olson)]

I was hitching.  It was hot and windy and no cars came by for 15 
minutes, and then one lone battered Datsun pickup.  Another 15 minutes 
and a pickup from a guy that lived up there who was in charge of the 
telephone system picked me up.  This was around noon, and there was not 
much traffic.  However, I got the feeling from the telephone guy that 
many of the people living up there will pick up backpackers.
