Enjoyed hearing about Wildheart's 10 year plan to hike the P.C.T. I, too, am on such a schedule, although I started 10 years later than he did. I began 7 years ago in my 60th year and plan to finish three years hence in my 70th year, with a summit of Mt. Whitney as icing on the cake! I am definitely a weather wimp and try to be in the best place at the best time (didn't plan quite right in So. Cal and nearly boiled to death). I go out twice a year for two weeks (150 miles each time, for a total of 300 a year). Although I only can do about 10 miles a day, I love the feeling of being self-sufficient in the wilderness. Would love to hear from any other senior women out there.
So long,
