Planning a hike or ride along the PCT?

Interested in making contact with other people who love the trail?

Or perhaps you've just completed your long hike or ride and feel like the folks at home don't understand?

Well, then the E-mail Forum (also called the PCT List or PCT-L) is the place for you.

The E-mail Forum is a rapid e-mail discussion among people who are interested in the PCT. All you need to participate is an e-mail account. Simply register and you'll start receiving interesting "posts" from members of the forum in your mailbox.

Each day, discussions on the list cover a wide range of topics from planning, bears, and giardia, to stoves, shoes, snow conditions, and much more. Don't see the information you need? Post your question.

Please note, the E-mail Forum (PCT-L) is a free discussion so you're sure to get a wide range of interesting (and often conflicting) opinions on how to make your next PCT adventure more enjoyable. Applying this information to your personal situation and preferences is up to you.

Also, the PCTA does not sponsor the list and does not support all of the opinions expressed there.
