saw the movie yesterday. Amazing. One of those movie that makes you think about your own existance. One of the most inspiring movie i've seen in a long time.

not necessarily the PCT or maybe yes; but doing a long hiking trip if definitely in my bucket list. And I will hit 36 y-o in march. I feel time is running. I will do it in 2016. I will make sure it happend in 2016. I have too.

But i dont want to do something as long as the whole PCT. I would go for something shorter. Something that will take 3 to 5 weeks.

The trail is 2,650 miles and it generally takes the entire snow-free season to walk. That's about 5 months. Elite athletes who are experienced on the PCT have finished the trail in as little as two months. The few who achieve sub-100 day hikes average well over 30 miles per day.

yeah I was told expect to spend 7 months on the trail. Apparently you have your family send care packages to different post offices along the trail. Then you pick them up and enjoy your items, snacks, chocolate, booze, batteries or whatever.
Also I hear that it is impossible keep weight on so basically everyone is very think when they finish.

Doesnt the west coast have more dangerous wild animals in the wild? like grizzly or mountain lions, wolves?

One more question. Wouldn't the whole hike be an equivalent of being absent for 5 years if you work in the tech industry? one season of no internet is like the equivalent of saying, what would the world be like in the future? so much could change...

I love to travel but don't have any desire to spend half a year hiking through the woods just to say that you did it. Imagine six months getting bitten by mosquito, wearing the same dirty clothes, etc. I think the novelty would wear off pretty quickly.
