Decisions Have Been Made!

Ok, I've watched a couple of videos from this guy, Jeff Corrigan (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4zc1A6-xCo30KjS54wcmNA).

He hiked a portion of the southern-most section earlier this year.

About a month ago, I knew I wanted to start the PCT earlier than most. I need the time to get, well, I guess, my hiker legs. I'm planning on starting out only able to do about 5 to 8 miles per day for a couple of weeks. If I started at that pace at the same time as everybody else, I'd likely never finish.

So I was trying to figure out the best time for me to start. The desert in late winter/early spring I hear is beautiful. I believe most of the streams and creeks will be flowing from rain and stuff.

So, I've decided to start my thru hike in <drum roll> mid-March 2018.

...

Wait, I thought there'd be trumpets or something. This is a monumental decision. Meh.  Ok, back to looking at maps.
