Here is the itinerary for my 2014 Pacific Crest Trail Thru-Hike! I have spent many hours thinking, planning, re-thinking, planning, re-thinking again, and planning to put this together. I am happy as it looks now and absolutely know after my first month this itinerary will be plus or minus a few days to a few weeks or more. If you want to know exactly where I am at any given moment you can click on the “Where Is the Nomad?” tab which will be live before my start date.

This itinerary is calculated based on hiking speed, miles per day, elevation gain and loss, weight of food to carry, available Post Offices near the trail, available full grocery stores near the trail, and how long I think I can go without a shower! I could not have of put this together without the help of Craig’s PCT Planner, thank you Craig!
