[pct-l] Mileage

[William Canavan]

Hi dz,
There are lots of guide books out there for the PCT and the AT and they all
have errors of some sort.  There are so many data points compiled in each
book and they change yearly.  Even if the measurement is correct a typo can
cause a discrepancy between guides.  But it doesn't really matter much
because you are going to walk there whether it's 42 miles or 43 miles.
Enjoy your hike!

I notice that Craig's PCT Planner puts Mt. Laguna at mile 42.3, while
Yogi's handbook and the data book put it at mile 43.

Not that 0.7 is a really big deal in the context of a 2600+ mile hike, but,
on the other hand, an 0.7 here and an 0.3 there WILL add up in the context
of a 2600+ mile hike, so....

Anyone here used Craig's planner? Thoughts?

Thanks.
