[Cdt-l] Pinedale to S Pass City, also Lander

[Trekker4 at aol.com]

Don't drink much, Mini Mart; only very rarely drink alone, but perhaps  I 
should have reassured everyone that it's still there. I did stop at Uncle  
Bucks outside Anaconda though. 
 
Also, saw most of the first 30+ Nbounders; knew 2 of them, knew Peanut  
Eater and, after he reminded me, Tattoo Joe from the PCT; another one thought  
she remembered me from the PCT. A guy just named Ross was apparently  at the 
head of the pack. Also met Wired, w/whom I'd talked on this list a few  
months ago. 
 
Hope my info  helps a few; the S bounders are still to come here in MT. 
Headin home to TX in a  few minutes.
Got ~400 CDT & ~400 PCT left for my 3 Crown; 200 AZT to finish it, and  
early next year some GET or HT.
 
Hike well,  all'a y'all! (that's the correct plural)

How about the important stuff? Did you get to the Wind River Brew  Pub in 
Pinedale? Mini Mart

couple days late--w/all 3 of my Bros...
 
PINEDALE:
1. Yogi, et all: Teton Court  & Blue Moon Lodge are definitely out of 
business; walked by 7 AM Sun on  way to breakfast @ Heart & Soul; BML had "out of 
business" sign on office  door; no cars, lights, nuthin' at Teton Court 
either.
 
PINEDALE to S PASS CITY:
1. A few more fords on way to SPC, none over shin deep this  year.
2. Virga, light rain, and threats every day but last; med rain  & 1/4" hail 
one nite in tent.
3. Combo of markers, no markers--the usual generally poor CDT  marking this 
last section; pay attention to the letters at the end of the JBrn  
waypoints. (I sure as hell don't think one should have to use a GPS to stay on  a 
trail, esp a National Scenic Trail.)
4. 2 of my 3 Bros picked me up at the end, so no comments on SPC;  I was 
driven away at 8PM dusk, roughly, w/a beer in my hand--a truly happy  camper!
 
LANDER:
1. Yogi, et all: We drove to Lander; I  walked into the Holiday Lodge, 
w/Yogi's pages in hand; met a very nice Rick  Clark, who charged the 3 of us $80 
total, a definite discount from 2013  prices. That included a roll away bed 
for me--a definite step up from a  ThermaRest pad don't forget. My Bros 
said the mattresses were the best  motel/hotel ones they'd ever slept on. The 
next morning Barb Clark and I had a  very nice conversation. They have a 
continental breakfast, and now a lobby  computer for guests. .
