You must be in pretty good shape if you think you're going to do 20 mile days, at least consistently. A buddy and I did one 21 mile day while hiking sec's 8-11 last year. I'll never do that again unless it's an emergency.
Its just a plan ive walked more and walked less. We shall see
Glad to see a fellow hammocker taking to the CT this summer.
I plan to be out there starting July 1st, southbound. After studying Google Earth of the Trail, I think we are good for hammocks the whole way if your willing to go off trail a little in the alpine sections near the end. That said I'm planning a go-to-ground fallback option, too. I hammock camped the entire PCT two years ago and went to ground twice. Once was just no place to hang and the other was due to too much wind. Still, I had to get creative for that first 700 miles of dessert. But that's part of the fun. Good Luck and Happy Trails!
