Yep got mine... 19th April

Not sure about that.

I would imagine if you are in your twenties, not married, not skilled with no hiking experience or money, it might be tricky

Not yet...doing that next

I had my interview today.

It took two hours all told. 1hr 55mins queuing and 5 mins talking to the man.

However I am approved.

I can't believe how many people they turn away for simple...

I am watching the Dixie videos on YouTube and I find them a delight. The lady in question comes across a a real breath of fresh air and is positive and respectful. I am also finding them useful from...

Excellent, I'll try and catch you up.

It takes a long time to hike the PCT. For new boys like me I really don't know what to expect. I am going with an open mind and will adapt and learn as I go. I expect over the weeks I figure how it...

Must admit that is a slight worry. I guess the first few weeks resupply cafes will be brimmed with hikers, but I suspect most will spread out so that sightings of fellow hikers will be few and fair...

I got 19th April. 4.5 months Rock n' roll bring it on.

Today when I woke I thought the permits thing happened in Jan. It was a friend who mentioned it by chance and I had to come home early from work to be by my computer. I had less than 1 min on the...

All of April has gone already

Looks like the missus is gonna let me walk the bloody...

Sorry Tinkers Knob is hilarious (the town not the event). Its up there with "Bell End", "Brown Willy", "Twat" and "Minge Lane". All gold.

Seriously...there is a place called Tinkers Knob?

I get the impression if you dropped me anywhere on the PCT I'll be happy. One of the problems with the UK is that we really don't have any 'wilderness' left. Sure in Scotland but even the mountainous...

Wow, Thanks everyone.

I wasn't really considering a circular route. But its a good idea. Yes bear canister. I told my wife and daughter about those. We don't get too many bears in Oxford, so its a...

Its basically July and first two weeks of August. Am meeting my family after for a vacation.

I would like to do a section of the PCT and come back some other time and do more.

John Muir...

Good morning.

After much negotiation, the wife has granted me 6 weeks on the PCT next year (2018). I am hoping to cover around 700-750 miles so my question is...

What section of the PCT should...
