Query from Greg/"Strider":
> Can anyone tell me if using a hammock on section P is practical?
> Enough trees at typical campsites to hang from?
YES! Granted, as always, there are some treeless, 'open', brushy or rocky slopes (which
most 'ground dwellers' wouldn't use to sleep at/on, either!) along the way...
Do some quick 'homework' with Google Earth and download Halfmile's PCT trace (found at
<http://www.pctmap.net/pctdownloads/halfmiles_pct_tracks_waypoints.kmz> and 'scout' the
PCT through the area of your interest ahead of time... You'll see that there are enough
trees in many(!) places along the trail to easily hang a hammock in Section P. ;-)
Have a great hike!
Happy trails!!!
Jim (PITA)
