Thanks for setting this up, Valerie!  Please tell the manager of the C-21 
how much everyone in the hiking community appreciates her support and 
assistance.  Could you also find out how long she'll hold packages and 
whether there are any other restrictions she'd like hikers to observe?  (In 
particular, will there be a fee for this service?)  Thanks again!!
