    Bring a Brita filter in your pack. (they seem to be heavily dosing their water this year and it has a distinct aftertaste)

    I called ahead to see if I could stay in the Dungeon. Not the right thing to do. They said no. The short of it is that if you are honest and plan, you can't stay. If you show up with no plan at a time where you are in need, you have a good chance. I understand the policy. I almost grasp why it is necessary. I completely disagree with it.

    Edit: For those that are asking themselves how you call, I obtained a number from a friend that would know. It was not a number to the Hut. It was a number to a person that used to handle such planning. They no longer allow a person to be prudent and calculate a proper distance and make proper plans... unless you are willing to play full price.

    I voted that I got creative. Sorry. I am not going to explain that creativity... and no, I did not sleep at the Hut.

    I washed dinner dishes for stay during my '76 thru and loved my experience there - so much so that I returned for the '77 season to work as a crop member. I was unquestionably partial toward thrus and helped them out as much as possible. There just werent all that many back then so they weren't too much of a strain on resources.
