Hey all!
It has been a year since I finished my SoBo thru of the Continental Divide Trail and almost 3 years since finishing my Appalachian Trail SoBo thruhike. I know it's early, but I'm already planning on completing my triple crown on the PCT come 2017. As with my past two hikes, I'll be traveling Southbound, starting from Canada and ending at the Mexican border. Albeit early, anyone else on here planning on trekking that direction? With my first thru I met two people on these forums that I'm still friends with today - Treegasm and Sherpa. My start dates on both previous hikes were (coincidentally enough) June 27th. I'm aiming at that same start date, give or take a few days depending on travel/weather/the unpredictables. I've read about snow on the mountains out there in those months but feel experienced enough from the CDT that I shouldn't encounter too many problems. I guess we'll have to wait and see what the precipitation will be like this winter.
Anyways, just wondering if anyone else is planning on walking South. It'd be great to have company at the beginning as the first two weeks are always the hardest (unless you hit the Gila river on the CDT in 40 degree weather with the river up to your waist ).
Can't wait to see yall out there!!
