The Saufleys of Agua Dulce CA are wonderful. The have such an organized operation with extra volunteers to help hikers in many ways. The receive resupply boxes, do your laundry, provide showers, provide temporary clothes while they’re being washed, have a WiFi internet tent, take you to nearby stores such as REI and Walmart, etc. Here are a few pictures of their home along with the 30-40 hikers who are staying here for a max of 2 nights. I was able to resupply for a few places up the trail. Wonderful, just wonderful!
Must be like coming upon an oasis in the desert. I am so grateful for all the help you receive.
Do they have the magic foot repair lotion? It is really good! And your feet are your most valuable asset now, give them a good massage every day when you put it on and get them all revved up for another day of hiking. They will be like the sled dogs, rarin’ to go….lol.
Gee Bryan – did you notice the other hikers are just a year or two younger than you? Do you get many comments about the age difference – – im sure the younger folks are very impressed.
