That afternoon we climbed into the truck of a friend of Action Pack and headed to Lake Siskiyou for some sunbathing, rope swinging and relaxation. Mellow, Action and Smiles arrived at Shasta later that day and setup at the KOA campground, where we cooked chicken and burgers and corn-on-the-cobb.
The next day was full of good intentions to hike out of town and get back to the trail. However, resupplying and hitching out of town took the majority of the day. After trying to hitch near the Burger King for about an hour, we decided to walk across the freeway near the on ramp. After another 45 minutes we secured a ride from a young man who looked like Albert Einstein (with crazy blonde hair and bad teeth). This kid worked seasonally clipping and processing weed (an occupation that I learned occupy's more than one thru-hiker during the fall season!). After generously supplying a small bag of weed to Jubel, we hiked seven miles to...I don't remember where!
