If you start the PCT in april and go South, you better be a great skier!
Last year some people did the PCT and the AT in a year, but also a CDT??? (
Not in my lifetime ) Last year , they did a PCT south to North, then did an
AT North to South and finished around mid-Dec. A triple in a year would
require a hiker to pack nothing more than a dixie cup and a pack of certs.
Anything else would need to be carried by other hikers. So 2,200 plus 2650
plus 3,100 = almost 8,000 miles of trail. You would need to hike 26.6 miles a
day for 300 days, not counting travel time between trail. Of course, if you
did it , you would be in the next movie " Night of the Walking Zombies " and
be on HBO. Good Luck!!
