Hello PCT community

Thank you to members of this list for helping me prepare for my first section hike (campo to Highway 10 in March-April 2013). I didn't know if I could do it and it is a thrill -- as a 65 yr old woman and complete newcomer to backpacking and distance hiking--to get to live this dream. 

For my next section, I hope to start at Walker Pass Highway 178 --after flying into Bakersfield on May 29 (my hope is to reach Tuolomne meadows july 1 but since i averaged only about 11 miles a day in Sections A and B it is yet to be seen what i can actually do at high altitudes!)

I have great info on public transit and can get myself to Onyx. I would LOVE trail angel help with transport -- whether from Bakersfield or Lake Isabella or Onyx -- and of course would gratefully pay for gas etc.

Does anyone know of a potential trail angel in these areas I might contact?

Many thanks and I hope to see you on the trail!
