SHUTTLE IS BOOKED!

UPDATE - SHUTTLE SERVICE IS BOOKED.

I will be starting my hike in April and venturing out on my own, BUT I won't be alone. I have booked and paid for the PCT Southern Terminus Shuttle Service which means that all I need to do is get to Old Town Transit Centre from San Diego Airport. (and there is a free bus service from the airport, so that's ace).

The PCT Shuttle Service is $75 and includes:

• Other hikers who are starting the same day as me will be on the shuttle.

• Rolling classroom - so the owners / drivers of the Shuttle Service have walked the PCT numerous times and have also walked 1000's of miles on various trips (including the Camino, Appalachian Trail etc) - so we can all ask questions to them on the 2hr journey to the endpoint. (Invaluable).

• The shuttle will take all of us to an Outdoor Store called REI to collect things we may need like fuel, lighters, tent pegs etc.

• Next stop is the Green Store (where we can pick up our food for the first three days of the hike).

• Then we are taken to a campsite which is literally 1/4 mile from the start of the PCT Terminus.

• We will camp overnight, have breakfast in the morning and then we will be off!

I feel better knowing that I will be with other people as I start my hike.Read more
