MP 877    Vermillion Valley Resort.    Stayed overnight in this pleasant place but am hiking on.    I have just met Mother Goose who is an almost mythical figure amongst thru-hikers.    She appears to be quite old.    Says she has hiked the Appalachian Trail six times.    She has hiked sections of the PCT many times but has never finished because, she says, "I don't do snow."     Altogether she says that she has hiked more than 35,000 miles on the long trails.      Maybe this will be here year to finish the PCT because of the low snow conditions.
