[pct-l] From Campo, right away

[mark v]

All psyched to start hiking in a couple days, whether
this turns out to be a section hike, or the beginning
of a thru-hike (with 70 or 80 zero days to wait out
the snow)!

Are the early campgrounds sure to have their water
running?  (Morena, Boulder Oaks especially)

Any last-minute gear advice?  I probably won't be able
to be as light as i'd like because of the cold temps,
but i think i've got what i need.

How much snow is there right now in Longs Canyon and
the Lagunas?  I'll surely give a call to the lodge and
find out what they know too.

Is S-1 an ok place to hitch a ride?  I'm trying to
guess how far i'll get in how much time, and a
hero/angel is giving me a ride to start, but i may end
up needing to hitch one way or another along S-1.

Any other unsolicited tips are ok with me...Thanks!
