[pct-l] Why do you hike solo?

[scourtway at bpa-arch.com (Steve Courtway)]

I usually hike solo if I can't find anyone to go with, which is about 1/2
the time for me.  The biggest pros are not having to coordinate with anyone,
you're on your own schedule and can do whatever you want.  The downside is
there is no one there to share in your exhilaration when you're taking in a
view or making it to the top of the pass, and camp can be very boring
solo....For me it's a last resort, I'll go solo only when I can't find
anyone to go with.
