[pct-l] need 2 week segment hike recommendation

[jjolson at uwyo.edu (Jeffrey Olson)]

The hike from Snoqualmie Pass to Stehekin is a good one.  It's about 165
miles.  Lots of serious up and down with all the incumbent views.  Lots of
lakes and streams as well.

Check out the Lady of the Lake Ferry http://www.ladyofthelake.com/ from
Stehekin to the town of Lake Chelan.  I believe you can catch a bus from
Lake Chelan to Seattle and then a bus from Seattle to Snoqualmie Summit
where you started the trip.  You could drop off food at Stevens Pass - hang
it in a tree off the trail - there are lots of them -

employee to hang on to it for a week for you.

> I'd like to solicit some thoughts on a good segment hike for this summer.
Last summer I did Tahoe to Yosemite, and the summer before the JMT.  I'm
looking for another 175 - 200 mile hike for this summer (around 12 trail
days in late August - early Sept).  I am totally unfamiliar with the Oregon
and Washington segments of the trail.  Being an old climber I enjoy the high
and wild, and fly fishing in the evenings.  Any suggestions?
