[pct-l] PCT Baja to Manning
Hey Monte,
Stop being such a pansy. Let's go for extreme thru hiking; -- other
than me that is. :-)
Start at the south pole around Sept 21, then hike the bi-continental
pacific crest trail thru South America (need to do some route finding)
up the Isthmus of Panama Crest and keep on going on the PCT and then
thru Canada to the North Pole by about the next Sept 21. And down south,
you would have a stretch of ocean kayaking just to add more extreme
adventure. Probably could sell the exclusive story/video rights to
Discovery Channel to help pay for it. Anyone fool enough to take this
on. Any one would only have to average around 70 miles per day. Start
training now!

> Too bad Mexico doesn't have a trail from Cabo up the Baja to tie into our PCT. You could start at Land's End Jan 1st. and still make it to the kick off in time. Baja has miles of power lines and would serve as trail just like our Mojave aquaduc. Lots of great mountains there to boots which are some of the least explored anywhere. I ran into a bunch of VERY tall locals near Santiago which I am told are direct grandsons of pirates that retired and blended into the high hills. ( Lots of caves and rumors of gold still hidden. ) One of the new hotels at Cabo just dug up a large jar of gold Spanish coins while digging their foundation. It's time to hike the B to B trail . ( Baja to Banff) Link here is to the Stehekin Valley On-line paper which did a short story on our recent snowshoe trip and is a great info source on Stehekin..http://www.stehekinchoice.com/voices/photos/power_point_flash/showshoeing_2006/2006_monte_snowshoeing.htm<http://www.stehekinchoice.com/voices/photos/pow
