Synopsis

The completely updated and revised, Third Edition, Pocket PCT is built around an elevation profile and accompanying data table of the entire 2660 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail from Mexico to Canada. The mile-by-mile elevation profile and data table represented in chapters, each beginning and ending at a common resupply location. The detailed profile shows water sources (each rated by reliability), water cache locations, resupply points, and hundreds of other landmarks such as campgrounds, roads, creeks, rivers, trails, powerlines, bridges and gates. The data table includes more than 3,000 landmarks. Each landmark includes mileage, a short description, elevation and distance to next reliable water source. Commonly used resupply point addresses and other information is included in the back of the guide, including directions to each resupply point from the trail. This guide's author has thru-hiked the Pacific Crest Trail three times and used the suggestions of fellow PCT hikers to write the Pocket PCT.
