We'll leave the Monroe Park and Ride at 6:30. Directions will be provided in our "Hello Hiker".
This is a long milage hike with a couple hours of driving on both ends. To that end, I'll be working hard to maintain schedule with a 1.8 to 2.0 mph pace. Goal is to have time to mosey a bit in the meadows and on the PCT so enjoy the views and hopefully the flowers with sacrificing regular breaks and a nice lunch.
