== Hitching out ==
=== Highway 1 ===
On the highway going West there is a bridge. The area in between that bridge and the Hwy 23 (south) intersection in front of it has an unusually wide shoulder on both sides and is in full view of drivers going either way. Plus, the intersection slows potential traffic down considerably. This is an ideal spot for hitchhikers going both directions.
=== Highway 23 (South) ===
== Accommodation and Sleep ==
There is a really great backpackers hostel in the city that is packed full of international skiers and snowboarders during the winter season. The area is heavily wooded. '''Be aware''' that there are numerous black bears that roam the town at night, so stash your food away from your camp.
