That's Scott Williamson and I'm no Scott Williamson, nor do I want to be.
"Average daily mileage for entire duration-27.8
Typically full day miledge-35-42"
If you or anyone else wants to start May 22nd and hike 30-40 miles per day
knock yourself out! Sorry but I prefer a slower pace....

In 2006, someone started from the Mexican border nobo for Canada on May
22... If that person had first asked the list for 'friendly' advice, the
responses mostly would have been "it will be too hot", "there won't be enough water"
or "the caches will be empty", a few "you'd have to be crazy", and "you're
starting too late, you won't make it to Canada in time" remarks... That
person made it through the "hot" desert, did not rely on the water caches -
instead going off trail at times to known sources... A 'late' start - was there
time to get to Canada? Yes, and on November 28, 2006, he touched the PCT
monument at the border - the Mexican border... Scott Williamson completed his
second PCT yo yo... Scott says/insists he is not really a 'fast' hiker, but he
does hike many hours each day
