Whilst hiking through Oregon this past Summer, and trying to find the PCT  
route among the  descriptions of side routes, alternate routes, and scenic  
routes, it became apparent that the Authors of Oregon portion of the guidebook  
don't very much like the actual PCT... they continually recommend other  routes. 
 So, in a moment of boredom, I counted.  There are more words  by far 
concerning non-PCT trails than the PCT itself.  I know... I  know... but sometimes 
getting a life is easier said than  done.  :C)
