[pct-l] memorial for Bill "Asabat" Jeffery

[Deems]

>I met Bill at the ADZKO, and we shared a love for PCT history, and the 
>trail itself. I hiked by Charlton lake in 2010 when I hiked the Oregon PCT. 
>I camped at Bobby lake the nite before, and arrived at Charlton lake at 
>noon, checked out all the campsites, and hiked north to Stormy lake for the 
>nite. But I will always remember that Chalton Lake was AsaBat's last 
>campsite. Thank you for placing this memorial on the PCT to Bill!

> Today, I had the honor of placing Asabat's memorial at Charlton Lake. Dana
> Law put all the effort into putting it together and mailing it up here.
> The memorial is located on the PCT, rather than the lake itself. I placed
> it at the southernmost signed junction to the lake, 0.11 mi. south of the
> main junction, and 0.48 south of rd. 5897. That places it just past trail
> mile 1931.5. For those who like coordinates, it's at N 43 44.644, W 121
> 58.747. It is a metal ammo can, with notebook and pencils inside for 
> people
> to sign.
>
> I'm glad I was given the opportunity to be a part of this. I didn't know
> Bill personally, but I know he did an awful lot for the PCT community. So
> next time you're hiking past, stop by and give your regards.
