Editorial Reviews

The Pacific Crest Trail (also known as the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail) is a long-distance mountain hiking and equestrian trail that runs from the United States border with Mexico to its border with Canada and follows the highest portion of the Sierra Nevada and Cascade Range which parallel the Pacific Ocean by 100 to 150 miles (161 to 241 km). The Pacific Crest Trail is 2,650 miles (4,240 km) long[3] and ranges in elevation from just above sea level at the Oregon-Washington border to 13,153 feet (4,009 m)[2] at Forester Pass in the Sierra Nevadas.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Practical Information, May 29, 2008

This review is from: How to Hike the Pacific Crest Trail (VHS Tape)
This video is largely a collection of interviews with a couple dozen folks who have hiked the entire trail. Each hiker is given as much time as they need to discuss a wide variety of topics: finding and treating water, dealing with snow, resupply strategies, etc. It was fun getting to know the different hikers as they expounded on their experiences on the trail. Many of the interviewees go into great detail about how they dealt with the challenges of the trail. If you are planning on hiking all or part of the PCT this video would be a very valuable source.

I greatly enjoyed the movie, but would like to offer some cautions. This is not really a travelogue sort of video. You will learn a lot about people's hikes, but the movie does not contain a start-to-finish account of anyone's journey. There are very few scenic shots from along the trail. Instead, this is a straightforward informational video designed to aid people in preparing to hike the PCT.
