Hey Curtis- I am guessing the 3-4 a day surprised you. I thought it was bit high for this time of year...

Agreed. I'm thinking Curtis has a better handle on his visitors than moldy or anyone else....but I could be wrong, you never know, he could of been hibernating or hanging with LW for the past couple of weeks.

does Curtis own the hostel?

Second Stage told me that she only knew of 2-3 behind her...

Second stage sounds familiar.. maybe I have read her trail journal? i've been reading quitea few trail journals

I'll let Curtis confirm or deny this info at his discretion, but I can say he knows more about the comings and goings at SB Hostel than anyone else on here. Looking forward to hitting SB again this Spring.

She did most of the trail in 2010 and yes, she does have a current journal on Trail Journals....
