[pct-l] Trail recommendations

[Sean 'Miner' Nordeen]

"My daughter and I are planning a 7-10 day stretch of PCT to explore and would like some recommendations between Portland and Yosemite.  We have explored the INYO and Yosemite park, several trips on the John Muir, and would like to head north a bit into northern cali/southern oregon.  Any advice from seasoned hikers would be appreciated. 10miles/day is what we will average."  


If you had more time, I'd recommend the 150miles from Tuolumne Meadows to Echo Summit by Lake Tahoe since you can get public transportation to Yosemite and from S. Lake Tahoe.  Another idea would be from Burney Falls S.P. to Castle Crags at the I-5 (about 85miles) as you can use the Amtrak to go to Redding and take a local bus up to Burney.  You can catch the Amtrack in Dunsmuir off the I-5 when you are done.
