 From reading pct-l and Trailjournals it seems some people
have ditched their tent and the warm clothes because they
thought it was always hot and sunny on the southern PCT.

It is strange since every bit of advice I've ever seen about
thru-hiking the PCT (handbooks, ALDHA workshops, PCT-L, personal
discussions with hikers) has always mentioned that you have
to be prepared for cold and possibly wet weather anywhere
on the trail.
