❤️

We are devastated to share that our long-time friend and ferry captain Paint “Paint Your Wagon” passed away yesterday. He went doing what he loved: serving hikers on Edison Lake.

It’s impossible to overstate just how important Paint was to VVR, to the thru-hiking community, and to all the people he crossed paths with. His joyous/intense energy, welcoming spirit, and dedication to the backcountry will never be forgotten!

We are all grieving here and appreciate your understanding as we keep things operating at VVR. We’ll post a more substantial tribute to Paint in the coming days.
