[pct-l] Northern California/Oregon Section Hike Suggestions

[Scott Williams]

Just to expand a bit more, if you've hiked the Trinity section of the PCT
you only glimpsed the actual "alps" from a great distance, not even as
close as you get to Rainier, another great mountain that you really don't
get to experience on the PCT.  But hiking into the Trinity Alps themselves
is incredible.  Don't think you've really seen them from the PCT, and
anybody who loved that section, which I totally do, should take a week or
two to explore them in detail.  They are craggy and grand just like the
High Sierra and WA Cascades, only a smaller mountain range in total.  Like
the Olympics in WA, it's one of the few places in America where you have
tundra and Alpine habitat so close to an ocean.
