I know the PCT High Trail is very scenic, but so is the JMT.
I have hiked that section of the JMT a minimum of 12 times and consider 
the section between Island Pass & Garnet Lake one of the most scenic on 
the JMT and the Sierra.
Seeing Banner, Ritter and the Minarets in the distance is without a 
doubt a beautiful sight.
However, hiking along the shores of Garnet & Thousand Island Lakes, with 
Banner, Ritter and the Minarets towering overhead, is nothing short of 
spectacular.
I would choose the JMT route every time.
But, then again, ''Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder'' and since the 
JMT is  ''My Baby''  I, without a doubt, have a biased opinion.

With this my friends, I will say......''fare well''.....''so 
long''.....''Auf Wiedersehen''.....''good by''.......it has been nice 
knowing you all and hope to see you allon the trail someday.
