We accept resupply (food cache) packages for hikers. We are located 7 miles off the Pacific Crest Trail. The Pack Station is directly off Highway 108 (Sonora Pass) approximately 7 miles from Highway 395. Our opening and closing dates depend on snow conditions in our area. If you are planning on sending or picking up packages early June or late September it is a good idea to call us first. The best way to send us packages is by US Priority Mail with delivery confirmation or UPS, two to three weeks ahead of your pick-up date. Both will allow you to access a toll free number to be sure your package has reached us. Address your packages to:
