I'll be doing a SASH (short-ass section hike) of the PCT in June, and would like to do a quick overnight gear test trip in the next few weeks. I'm currently thinking of going from Glacier Point to Dewey or Stanford out-and-back. Would anyone happen to have any information on the current conditions of Pohono trail, in terms of significant blowdowns or other damage, and if so when maintenance crews might start working on those?

Thanks in advance!

Why do we (American wilderness backpackers) use "standard" American units for everything except water?

And yes, a liter is a very convenient amount of water to think in. But the quart is right there. For the amounts of water we typically carry, quarts and liters are basically interchangeable.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
