<p>Jim,</p>
<p>Most Sep-Oct hikers on our section will be SOBOs, but the water
situation is the same.</p>
<p>I could vote for some signs in the Jenkins/Chestnut shelters
reminding hikers of water points and to be diligent on water
planning during the dry months. I do not think we need to bring
water to 623.</p>

<div>No maintenance issues this past week. I see that Tina posted
a comment that they are opening the Quarter Way Inn on June 2nd.
Only open until July 10th, I think.</div>
