The Pacific crest trail (Pacific Crest Trail, abbreviated designation PCT) is a long-distance nature walk of the United States of America. アパラチアン trail (en:Appalachian Trail), one of the three major long-distance nature walks in the United States along with the Continental ディヴァイド trail (en:Continental Divide Trail).

Summary
PCT traverses the American West Coast to the north and south from American = Mexico border to American = Canada border. Mountainous district in California —— I go over the cascade mountain range in Oregon, Washington, and the total extension achieves ラグナ mountain range (en:Laguna Mountains), San Jacinto mountain range, サンバーナディーノ mountain range, sun Gabriel Mountains (en:San Gabriel Mountains), a livre mountainous district (en:Liebre Mountains), Tehachapi Mountains, Sierra Nevada Mountains than 4,000 kilometers.
The name the Pacific crest trail was a thing given by Clinton C Clark in 1932, but was not an official name to the national trail system method of 1968 (w:en:National Trails System Act of 1968).
Through hiking (thru-hiking)
I call that I finish walking all sections of this kind of American nature walk before 1 season through hiking (thru-hiking). The people approximately about 300 challenge that they walk the trail from beginning to end between all wards every year. I call these challengers a through hiker (thru-hiker). It needs six months for this trip from four months, and it is 60% to gain success. Most through hikers leave the Mexican border and aim at arriving at the north end before first snow falls. For food supply in the way, it is common to send baggage to the town along the way by mail.
It is considered to be 18-year-old Eric Ryback (Eric Ryback) in 1970 to have succeeded in the first through hiking of PCT. However, the doubt that injustice might be performed leans on these achievements and is controversial even today.
The first person confirmed surely who accomplished through hiking of PCT is Richard Watson (Richard Watsoon). Watson is the through hiker who took the trip facing north first again. Watson achieved through hiking on September 1, 1972. The first woman who achieved through hiking is Mary Karr Sten (Mary Carstens); (1972).
The first person who gets through all sections of PCT at once in both north and south directions, and hiked is Scot William loss (Scott Williamson). The William loss made the fourth challenge in November, 2004 and gained success at last. The William loss traveled across approximately 8,528 kilometers (5,300 miles) for 197 days, but this would walk daily an average of 56-64 kilometers (35-40 miles).
