[pct-l] JMT Thru Hike?

[Marcia Powers]

Yes, a two week JMT hike can be done and still be a wonderful, enjoyable hike. 

It won't be enjoyable with a heavy pack or if you aren't reasonably fit. We thought we were ready when we could comfortably hike fifty miles on a three day weekend. We also weeded out gear after these practice hikes that were in themselves enjoyable.
