The essential, cut-to-the-chase handbook to the Pacific Crest Trail, based on the comprehensive Wilderness Press guidebooks to the PCT, has been updated for 2005. Packed with trail-tested features, it's useful both on and off the trail. Use this indispensable tool for:

  • Setting daily on-the-trail mileage goals by knowing trail gradient and the locations of campsites, water sources, and facilities
  • Easily calculating distances between any two points on the trail
  • Planning both north-bound and south-bound hiking trips

Whether you're hiking the entire PCT or just sections of it, the first step of the journey begins with this book.

Summary: Couldn't Be Better
Comment: I can't think of anything this guide has left out. It provides not only thorough trail descriptions and maps for each segment that are detailed and clear, but also a history of the trail, both natural and historic, advice on planning your trip, and a complete list of agencies to contact for trail permits. I appreciate the details regarding flora and fauna, as well as advice from everything to supply stations to how to deal with bears. I don't believe that I have ever seen a more thorough and complete trail guide.
