tebbetts and peers are the only two towns in the middle of the 50 miles between mckittrick
and hartsburg. FUEL UP AT THE PEERS STORE instead of in tebbetts. the peers store is open
more consistently for SURE. going E to W, had i not stopped in peers (and opted for tebbetts
instead) i would have been SOL. only things "open" were a post office and a vending machine.

Ummm, did you maybe miss something? Peers is east of McKittrick not west, there are also the towns of Rhineland, Bluffton, Portland, and Mokane before you get to Hartsburg. Three if these towns have bar/restaurants, Rhineland Portland and Mokane, Bluffton has a snack shop right on the trail, and Mokane also has a small grocery store. Plus there are several B&Bs along the way.

;-) Wondered which B&B they stayed at? It's a good idea to carry a ziploc bag of quarters
for the vending machines.

Mokane is 6 miles down the road to the East, and has both a bar/grill AND a grocery store that has a deli. Plus they have a gas station and post office. The store is open from 7am till 9pm and the bar/grill is open from 9am till at least 11pm and later if there are people. The only other town that has more than 1 option and has those kinds of hours is Rhineland which is 20-25 miles to the East, way past Mokane. I'd say the best bet is Mokane. No really good places to stay for quite a stretch, though.
