Re: First Time Itinerary Advice!

We just got back on Thursday! We managed to stick to the plan.

8 hours is spot on from S Desor to W Chickenbone. It wasn't the easiest of days but we stopped at Hatchet Lake for lunch and a foot dip in the lake.

All in all a great trip!! Thanks to all for the advice.

Re: First Time Itinerary Advice!

Thanks, Donk_67! That's good to know. We did a couple 15+ days on a section of the PCT in California, but I hear the Greenstone can be slower going than other trails. Would you suggest any campgrounds along the route if we feel like it's going to be too much? The only other option I could think of ...

Re: First Time Itinerary Advice!

Oh that's a great point! Looks like we'll just have to see how we feel after our 15 miler on day 2.

Thanks everyone for the advice!!

Re: First Time Itinerary Advice!

Ok sounds like a plan! It sounds like we can play the last couple days by ear and swap Daisy with Moskey if we are feeling good with the mileage.

Can't wait!

Re: First Time Itinerary Advice!

Great advice thanks!!

I did have one version going from Chickenbone W to Moskey Basin on Day 3 and then from there to Rock Harbor on Day 4. Would it be worth a few extra miles to do Moskey Basin over Daisy Farm?

First Time Itinerary Advice!
