Hi all,

My girlfriend and I live in Scotland and thru-hiked the PCT in 2002. Before=
 and during the hike we received wonderful help from SO many people. If we =
can offer any help or advice based on our experience we'd be delighted to d=
o so.

I wrote my own version of the "Town Guide" (including where we could buy st=
ove alcohol) which I'd be happy to e-mail to anyone who wants it.

E-mail me at simonwillis@backpacker.com W

e hiked ultra-light-ish... alcohol stove, Tarptent, GoLite Gust sacks throu=
ghout. Our pack base weights varied from 12lb to 18lb.

We mailed food/fuel boxes to many locations, but also bought stuff.

ss above.

And a HUGE thank you to everyone who helped us.
