kudos to this group who is planning to hike the WCT *extreme* style. what exactly is extreme hiking?
"Extreme day hikes are the practice of going long distances in one day without camping. You go light, long and sometimes fast. It can be a lot of fun to do because you get to go so light and it really pushes you depending on what hike you're doing. The idea is to hike early and be back home for dinner and beers. Sometimes this means starting early and night hiking some." - tribes.tribe.net/extremedayhikers
i've heard of it and have friends who have done a few extreme days, but my biggest day was 23miles - that's only halfway for this trail!!!
are you interested?
