What about heading north along the CDT in-season, following a low-snow 
winter, then southbound along the PCT, walking around the High Sierra as 
necessary, and then northbound on the AT?

Never say never. They said that about a double-trail hike, a 4 minute mile, 
and human flight. Actually, they said that about a single thru-hike of the 
AT, before Earl Schaffer proved them wrong (twice).
