[pct-l] Distance of the intire PCT ?

[m.karon at comcast.net (Marshall Karon)]

To my knowledge, the trail at this time is just in the USA. Some folks may
piece together some Canadian trails to go further north. How long is the USA
trail? Difficult to say exactly because it often changes because of detours
due to natural causes (fires, washouts, etc.) or routes changes (as land is
acquired). It is about 2650 miles, this year longer because of the
Washington detour.

And, if you include going to resupply stops, you can easily add another
50-100 miles of hiking, depending on where you stop.

At any rate, it is a long, glorious trail. And those that do the whole trail
in one season often wish it had no end - and those who are at home, like me,
wish we were on it.
