[pct-l] Early flip Flop Weather

Jim and Tom,
Thanks for responding to my post. Not sure why I did not get other responses, but yours were great! Jim, I may be seeing you out there on the trail as an early bird! Are you planning on hiking N to KM, then flip to ashland and hiking N to canada, then flipping back to ashland south? Is that a reasonable plan? Maybe that would work and I would be able to hike it all in one season. Would that help miss the major snow spots? I try to be flexible but with school its hard- and I havent even started yet! 
Cool, I was looking for someone to tell me yes/no on the cascades. If I do flip from KM to ashland, would it take enough time to get through OR that once I get to the cascades the snow would be lower? I plan on 30's through OR. Not too worried about snow, its the SNOW that I am worried about- if you catch my drift. 
Breaking up the hike in 2 years would probably make the most sense weather and time wise, but I am unable to do that at the moment, besides the novelty of doing it in a thru hike. Pretty much got everything planned for the next few years, a few more adventures :)
Thanks guys for the help.
Evan
