[pct-l] Ebbitts Pass

[Edward Anderson]

Hi Shepherd,
 
I am also seeking current trail information.  The first part of my plans for this summer are to ride SOBO on Sections L,K, and J from Sierra City.  If the high trail north and south of Sonora Pass still has snow and ice I will descend past Wolf Creek Lake to the U.S. Marine Training Base on Highway 108. If PCT trail info at that time is encouraging I will continue south up the East Walker River to the PCT and head for Red's Meadow.  I'm hoping that if I wait until about August 8 to start from Sierra City those three PCT Sections will be clear and safely doable by a very sure-footed and agile Arabian horse.
 
How far north will you be hiking beginning Friday, July 10th? Will you go as far north as Sierra City.  I would greatly appreciate it if you would email me trail information on obstacles that you think might be difficult or impassable for a horse.
 
I will be forwarding to you a note from Mary Davies.  She is my angel in Sierra City.  She mentions a hiker hostel in S.C. and gives thier phone number.  You might get some info of interest to you from hikers who stop there. 
 
Have a great hike.

I will be entering at Ebbitts Pass on Friday and heading north.  If 
anyone is on, or has just completed that section, I would very much like 
to hear about the current conditions.  Thanks

Shepherd
