Great PCT Videos

Overall, I really, really, really dislike PCT hikers but these videos are well done and with good narration. This one is as they start into the Sierra at Siberian. The last #18 -- within the last few days, I think -- is heading out at Mammoth. It is still solid winter out there. These are pretty gnarly folks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGxQeJ1 ... _q&index=7
Also, FYI, it's now warming significantly in the Sierra. The melt had not really started above about 8,000. Now it will. In a sense, these PCT hikers are lucky they're staying ahead of the truly high water and had snow bridges in many places. Now, the snow bridges will start collapsing and the streams will come up significantly.
