Benoit,

My two recommendations would have to be,

- The Sierra, from Kennedy Meadows to Tahoe, and
- The Cascades, Oregon and Washington (or Washington alone, depending on 
your speed and ability)

Subject: [pct-l] One or two months hiking the PCT

Hi everyone,

I'd like to hike the PCT for at least a month (or possibly two months if I 
can take an extra month off work).

I'd like to know which section of the PCT I could hike in one month (or two 
months).
I would fly from France possibly mid-June.
I am thinking about starting from Kennedy Meadows up to Echo Lake for a 
month of hiking (20 days at ~20mi/d).
If I can get two months, then I would carry on and plan 40 days of solid 
hiking at ~20mi/d.

Please let me know if you can think of a better section to do on the PCT.

Any advices are of course more than welcome.
Cheers,

Ben
