[pct-l] Question about March start

[m.karon at comcast.net (Marshall Karon)]

Others will provide info on the probability of the weather being OK - but I 
do know that you could encounter snow at that time.

If you have the flexibility, I would suggest arriving into the LA area, 
checking the weather and trail conditions, and then deciding at that point 
on where to do a 200 mile stretch of the PCT. Resupplying from most places 
before Kennedy Meadows should be easily possible.
