DAn and the PCT in Washington

7/10/2019

  In a few days Dan is going to start on the 500-mile stretch of the PCT that's in Washington state.  He will send me dispatches and I'll post them here.  He's starting at the southern end, in the Columbia River Gorge and has been preparing in various ways for months.  
​   I'm sure that he'd like to thank hiker and author Tami Asars for her advice and for her book, Hiking the Pacific Crest Trail: Washington: from the Columbia River to Manning Park.   Powell's Books in Portland carries it: https://www.powells.com/book/-9781594858741
   As for me, due to family needs I can't join Dan on this one.  I wish him the very best and look forward to hearing from him.  Good luck old friend!

    Since we want to limit the wordiness in the regular web pages we decided to blog some about our trips over the past 40+ years.
