In that case, I have a question for those who have
hiked the PCT in heavy snow years. I was planning on
starting the PCT in late April. Would it be wise to
delay the start of my trip to say mid-May? (Two weeks)

I am strong enough of a hiker where I can still
comfortably  finish by late-September.

thanks!
