As some of you might know I hiked the Sentiero Italia (over 3,000 miles) through the Alps and Appeninnes in Italy last year. I took my 10 year old daughter for most of it. I adapted a bit of the...

I went to Mazama at Rainy Pass rte 20 whatever. My favorite place on pct. killer store nice people
I never wore pants on the PCT and I never got burned or poodle dogged. I wore a tshirt and my arms burned a bit one day near kern river
No if I was doing it this year I'd start Memorial Day weekend given the snow. Easy to make up the time after Sierra .
I have one lifestraw system and I wouldn't ever consider using it as a main filtration system.
That said I would go with Sawyer FULL SIZE which weighs just one ounce more than the mini but...
I thruhiked this trail. Nice trail. I camped wherever the whole way. Stealth camping wasn't a problem. Pretty desolate as far as other hikers in the north but there was a ton of people in Holyoke...
Major upgrade is wonderful !

U are right I used another six moon tarp alongside this. But this ones been on AT, NST, LT and all across Europe. I clearly am not a scammer as I've been here a long time. I've done a lot of hiking...
This a great tarp for someone who is interested in getting into tarping for the first time .
I have used this tarp for many many years and it has thousands of trail miles on it. It's easy set up...
Here here. I can here you. I am a very warm sleeper. I went with NO sleeping bag on AT from Damascus to New Hampshire. On PCT I froze with a 13 degree sleeping bag. Desert morning is hard to deal...
Have U ever been on PCT? Ground temps at 8000 feet and above is much colder than ground temp on AT in most cases. I found the zlite to be just enough for the coldest nights on each trail. I mean an...
Better question is this: would you notice 6 ounces in your pack?
Or if you trimmed off 3-4 panels off your zlite would you notice3 or 4 ounces?
The pct is colder at night than the AT, at least...
4 or 5 days

That place is one of the best spots on the AT and he has a pretty good store in there with exclusively hiker foods! You can easily ressupply there

Negatives to mail drops:
1. Unnecessary as there is stores all along the way
2. Hours of post office or place you mailed could be closed when u get there, forcing you to wait extra hours or days...
Where on earth are you gonna sell your car in rural Georgia? Seems like your trying to pack too much into a thruhike. Plan your hike. Don't add in unnecessary crap into your hike. Sell your car in...
I am down

You just need one but of course an email to the PCTA would be prudent
