The name isn't familiar (I'm bad at remembering names), but that doesn't mean I didn't meet him.
"Downtown" Stehekin has one road, with a store, a post office, a hotel, a camp, and a NPS building. There are bike and kayak rentals along the lake. There's a building with public laundry and showers (Stehekin is just off the Pacific Crest Trail so thru-hikers bound for Canada stop there). Everything in the span of about two city blocks. There's an organic garden toward the end, and a bakery; we'd walk down, get lunch, walk back and eat it along the lake, and talk to people. The locals (there are maybe 50 residents, and 2 or 3 phones) always seem interested in the visitors, I think when you live in that kind of isolation you like hearing about the outside world. But I'm really bad at remembering names. If he's even a little bit talkative and has been down by the main part of town in the past few summers, I've probably chatted him up.
You've seen pics of the town, right?
