Howdy,
I'd planned on a spring thru hike of the AT this year, but I've had some complications that will keep me from hiking until later in the spring/summer. I'm thinking about doing the PCT nobo in spring or perhaps sobo in July. Anyone interested in doing a SOBO. Francis Tapon has a good article about the advantages of going sobo: http://francistapon.com/Travels/Pacific-Crest-Trail/Why-go-southbound-on-the-PCT
If short, sobo can mean blue skies in in the PNW, no snow or bugs in the sierras and mild weather in the desert. Only catch is it requires a fast thru hike of about 4 months + probable snow hiking in the PNW. Sounds appealing to me. Anyone interested?
