That is great news for California Agriculture. If the predicted precipitation happens, followed by a "La Ni?a" cool spring, slowing the snowmelt, it might not be a good year for an early departure.

Also it is good to remember, that early travel in the Sierra is not so much determined by the snow levels, but the water levels due to snow melt. Late Spring stable snow won't kill you, but High water in the fords will.

Answer: 2,652.5 miles- due to a reroute. See Half Mile's website for the update.

Reposting this video... perhaps the timing in posting it originally, coincided with the list serve's hiccups, and it fell through the cracks for some?

Enjoy!

I don't mind owing up to the fact that I had the pleasure and opportunity to pilot the boat near the end of the video, while "working" last year at VVR, near mile 871 of the PCT- NOBO, or about midpoint of the JMT.
Somebody's gotta' do it!
