Paul,

I ran and hiked the PCT and other trails in the PNW this summer.  Sometimes
I wore minimal foot protection like Vibram FiveFingers or La Sportiva
CrossLites, but sometimes not.  You can read about my experiences on my
blog.

Good luck!

Matt

Hello All

Does anybody have any first or second hand stories of hiking the PCT
barefoot?  I read in an early journal this past season about one guy who was
trying it this year, but haven't been able to find anything on how that
worked out.  I've heard of at least a couple others.  I'm giving it some
consideration after a bunch of inspiring reading on the subject & would love
to pick the brain of someone who has actually done it or at least tried.  

Cheers,
