[pct-l] Hiking SOBO to meet up with NOBO Finisher late Sept

[Patricia Rice]

I plan to drive from Seattle, leave a car at the terminus in Canada  
and hike SOBO for about ten miles to meet up with a NOBO thru-hiker  
so we can "finish the PCT" together since I hiked the first five  
miles with him out of Campo last April.  Will have passport, maps,  
equipment and provisions for camping on own should we not connect for  
some reason as planned on first day.  This will be first time for me  
to the area; what I'm looking for is some general advice from anyone  
who's done this before that might help assure the experience goes  
smoothly (best place to leave rental car, permits to get, etc).   
Thanks.  No Trail Name....Yet
