Anyone ever hiked the Pacific Crest Trail?

[Ooh-Rah]

We hiked in WA on the PCT near chinook pass...we carried!

We hiked in NC near fontana dam on the AT and we carried.

My experience is 1/100000 th of YB....but id never go in the woods without a Plan B.

I agree with you 100% Spongy...but...somehow it would actually be a different type of adventure and experience if I were to take such a trip with nothing more by my side than my pocket knife. I would look at everything with more interest, precaution, and likely curiosity.

@Yellow Bastard , would you comment on the opinion of hiking "The Green Tunnel" vs the never ending views from the PCT?

I've only sectioned hiked the AT through parts of VA and MD.

I kind of liked the green tunnel. But the entire AT is not a green tunnel, I started early Feb so for a while it was a white tunnel. If you're going for views, go anywhere out west. The views are insane.

I've met some people on the AT that quit just because they weren't seeing anything. One of the good things about the green tunnel is that you're constantly under shade. On the PCT you're exposed to the sun almost every day.
