[pct-l] How early is PCT passable in the spring?

[Maxwell_Allen@xxxxxxxxx (Max Allen)]

Hey all,
I'm new here, first post.
I'm planning a PCT/PNT Thru hike. Yes, call me nuts, I'm going to
attempt them both back to back.  Is it better to battle early spring in
the south or a late fall in the north? I want to be out of the rockies
by winter. It looks like I'm going to hit some hairy weather somewhere.
I'm planning on early February through October 2005.
Thanks,
MAX
