[pct-l] Bypassing Fuller ridge

[Rob Rathmann]

I used this fuller ridge bypass in 2005, along with many other hikers.
 the idea of a 'continuous walk' was paramount for me also.  it is
some brutal pavement pounding on a fairly dangerous windy road, but
totally doable.

the hot road walk also resulted in the only real blister i got in
2005, which postholer was kind enough to photograph, but damn if it
wasn't a doozy:

I advised them to do Agua Dulce to Walker pass instead due to ice on fuller ridge but they want to always start again where they left off.  Is bypassing Fuller ridge by hiking down Devils slide, through Idyllwild, and up Black mountain road a good alternative?  They want to have a continous walk.
