[pct-l] Wash state southbound in August

[kwkurko at comcast.net]

Tim, 



With the huge snow pack we have up here again this year, mid-August is a great time to start hiking Washington State southbound in 2012.  I did some of it last year at about the same  time.  And yes, you will meet a ton of north bounders as you proceed south .  I think your timing is perfect.

Hey all, I have a 6 week break starting mid-August and want to do a whole 
state section of the PCT. WA state seems the most doable in 6 weeks. 
(Craig's thing has it at 41 days at conservative speeds.) Anyone else 
planning to start in BC at that time and head southbound? I know it's an 
odd time to start but there should be plenty of northbounders to gather 
inspiration from. Thoughts? Reply back with advice (pro/con) or interest!!
