We don't need a map we just need to find the trail head!
The last time I saw them was.... Oh that was yesterday
Will it rain today?They said it would be clear!
I have to go all the way back to town to get my permit?
Where is the trailhead again ,they told me it was behind the store.
Can I park in the middle of the road for three weeks while I do the JMT?
I parked in the overflow lot by the bathrooms next to the ADA area, it looks like a sidewalk but can I park there? For several days.
SOMEONE TOOK MY PACK LAST NIGHT. It only had some food in it and I had that in a double wrap!
Cottonwood has a nice pack station, That is where you will meet the Packer at 9 AM
We will meet my father in law at the campground they said turn at the gas station and go to the end of the road , Try Big Pine.
"I just finished badwater,' the guy standing next to you just finished a 6 day race and walked across America he seems OK waiting in line.
Unless you do a sub 3 hour RT the record still holds, Recall the faster you go the sicker you will get.
Wagbags are not trail markers. Pick any up you see and if anyone is in your group thinks about leaving one have a talk with them!

The Portal has enough funny stuff happening every week for supporting a reality TV show. Doug, do you have the TV rights?

I remember when I was at the Portal store last year after finishing the HST, someone called and ask if you guys sold oxygen, I only wanted a ice cream bar.
