One problem I see with you starting at the Sierras with your friend who has 
already been on the trail: he/she will already be trail 'hardened'.  If your 
friend is willing to slow down for a while to give you a chance to acclimate 
to the rigours of the hike, it'll work.

To anyone who has hiked the pct. I would greatly appreciate it if you could 
help me with a couple questions based on your experience. My friend and I 
want to hike the pct this summer, but because of work etc I will not be able 
to start until mid to late june. From what I have read, two options are 
avaialable. Hike north to south starting this late, or meet up with my 
friend in June and hike to the north terminus then I will hike south from 
the point where we met. As long as we do the high sierras going northbound, 
I should be able to pull this off right? Any advice anyone has on these 
ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again
