This group of worldly hikers was at Safeway in Port Townsend on Tuesday, Sept. 3, to pick up supplies before getting back on the Pacific Trail the next day.
The group, which was down to the last 20% of the trip, preferred to use a mix of real and trail names, such as (left to right) Delia “Scratchy,” Elliot “Beats” Pacheco, Timon, and Ben “Mash.”

The groceries cost more than $500, which didn’t include groceries belonging to a fifth friend, still inside paying.
