[pct-l] Hello

[Ed Jarrett]

I am just section hiking the trail.  But I find that every year I spend less and less time figuring out what I will encounter on the trail.  Pretty much all I m concerned about now is water, and to a lesser extent any significant climbs and snow possibilities along the way.

> Just thought I would drop a line to say hello.  I just subscribed to this list and I appreciate the sharing of information here.  I am hoping to attempt a thru hike of the PCT in 2015.  On the one hand I am enjoying hearing about the exploits of this years hikers.  I love looking at the photos.  On the other hand I don't want to become too familiar with the trail such that it removes all the excitement and surprises of what's around the bend.

Or did you just get a rough idea of resupply points and more broad stroke planning?  Lots to learn over the next 20 months.  Thanks for sharing your wisdom.  -Joe
