[pct-l] Snow Sections My alternate plan

[noedon31 at evergreen.edu (Noe, Don)]

I just got the chance to hike the PCT this year and want to go through Canada to Northern California. I hear that this route may be best this year because we got almost no snow up north. I am leaving July 1st and am looking for partners. 
I think this will be a great way to miss the hige fire season we are going to have up here in september. 

Any takers?

Hi,

Gary and I are planning to hike the last half of Washington this summer and
should have some time left in September and October to start some California
sections.

We would like to hike some the the Ca sections that are giving everyone snow
trouble now (and usually do in a normal year assuming a start from the
border in late April).  I think the operative words are in a normal year. We
would rather avoid the need for ice axes and crampons if possible next
year..

Any suggestions from those of you more familiar with Southern California?

Thanks,

Judy K
