I don't think the Jammer runs in the early season when southbounders are 
heading to the trailhead. Hitching is relatively easy in the park.

There was a hostel in Winter Park, but Roger Carpenter (I think it was him) 
reported that it's closed. Roger, can you verify this?

The hostel in Cuba is way outside of town and off route from the trail.

Not sure of a hostel in Grants, but there are people in the area who are 
taking in hikers.

Also, no hostel that I know of in Silver city, but the Fire Station # 2 
allowed me and my partner to camp on their grounds.

The people of NM were exceptional.
