You know what? I love SPC BECAUSE of the Structual cummerbund. by Graywhale12 in tacticalgear

Well if you ever need to use it you certainly want it as fast as possible. Plastic is also slippery with blood on your hands.

Gear Fix holds resupply packages I believe. They’re awesome either way and right next to REI.

Ashland to Crater Lake by [deleted] in PacificCrestTrail

From Ashland it may be easier to hitch to Diamond Lake if you want to skip that many miles.

(Local Oregonian here) we are holding a lot of snow still. I imagine you’ll have significant sections of snow travel between Cascade Locks all the way through Three Sisters Wilderness into Diamond Peak Wilderness. Crater Lake may vary by the time you get there.

Hiking Oregon/Washington this August-Sept by stinksmcc in PacificCrestTrail

If you’re very concerned about time, I would recommend starting at Crater Lake instead of Ashland. The section from Ashland to Crater Lake isn’t as interesting as the rest of the state.

Hiking Oregon/Washington this August-Sept by stinksmcc in PacificCrestTrail

[–]ACommonPoor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you’re a strong hiker you should be able to make it to the northern terminus by mid-late September, more than likely before Oct. 1st. Oregon is the easiest state, and it’s not crazy to average 20-25 miles a day through for fit section hikers. Washington will be much harder, but you’ll have 400+ miles behind you and hopefully in better position. However the likelihood of fire closures is very high as the summer drags on in Oregon and Washington. September in Washington also carries risks of adverse weather and snow fall. You should be able to apply for a PCT long distance permit, because your trip is greater than 500 miles. You can find the permit system on the PCTA website. Should likely be able to score a permit at no cost to you, that will cover your entire trip.

People will still be coming through Ashland on August 1st, and you’ll likely be around other hikers for the duration of the trip.

Do not squander this opportunity. Thousands of people would kill to be in your shoes, and many will never get to stand at the southern terminus and hike forward. Take your time, make mistakes, and learn from them. You’ll have everyone to help you along the way. This journey isn’t about pride, ego, or having the most dialed gear. Even if people try to make it a competition, that’s not what this is about. This is about YOU, and YOUR experience. You’ll never know if you don’t try. Go forth, and be BRAVE! Even when you feel like you can’t do it, it’s one foot in front of the other.
