Former Stehekin Washington Post Office

Stehekin WA Post Office 98852 — Stehekin (Former) Washington Post Office 98852

ADDRESS: 31 DeFacto Ln., Stehekin, Washington 98852

My initial visit to the Stehekin post office was in 2010. The reason for my visit was not to photograph the building. My reason and the reason so many other hikers stop here is to pickup their provisions. Stehekin is ideally located and easy access for Pacific Crest Trail hikers.

So I have a special place and fond memories of visiting this one. I’m sad to see that it has closed and is now on under my “Former” post office category but delighted I was able to visit when I did. I know PCT hikers will be sad to see this one go.

Stehekin was also the first place I became aware of the Postal Portrait book.

Thanks,
