    Corrall hollow starting from FR 7N09

    Thanks Matt. Your assumption was correct about starting the trail from west to east. In the end I did it west to east and then back again.

    loaded up a bunch of ethernet cable, few tools, my laptop and headed to my brother's house a few miles away to fix his home WI-FI. Seems that wi-fi and internet connections are a thing these days, with all the remote learning and working going on from home base.

Costco is also great tire option once you find out what you want to run. @M Rose has a great point though on road side assistance; Shwabbs has great road side assistance in PNW. Wonder...
