The PCT takes a lot of prep. Even though I am only a section hiker, I’ve been planing the PCT for almost 6 months. It starts with maps and trail planning - even harder for section hikers as you go in and out, getting permits, getting the lightest equipment you can find from tent and tent footprint to backpack, sleeping bag, mattress, stove, pot, utensils, rain gear, medical kit, shoes, socks, clothing, satellite phone, hiking poles and much more. Once I regain access to my laptop, I will post here a list of all the equipment I selected, plus weights. Here’s a non final draft I kept on my phone. There quite few things below that I did not take with me eventually.
