The Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail is a crown jewel in the National Trail System, but it's seldom fully enjoyed by the hikers who live nearest to it. Why? Because at 2,650 miles, it's just too daunting. Most guidebooks to the PCT focus on mile-by-mile descriptions of the entire trail, from Mexico to Canada-ideal for hikers with weeks or months to spend exploring significant portions of the trail. But such long-distance hikers comprise a tiny percentage of the entire hiking population. If you have limited time, The Best of the Pacific Crest Trail: Washington gives you the information you need to enjoy the beauty of the PCT- on a short day hike, an overnighter, or a week-long outing to explore the most remote areas of the trail.
