Pacific Crest Trail Recreation

The Pacific Crest Trail, or the PCT, is arguably the most famous of the nation's designated National Scenic Trails.  Winding its way through spectacular vistas from Mexico to Canada, the PCT stretches 2,650 miles through California, Oregon, and Washington.  

The PCT is a non-motorized trail designed for hiking and equestrian use.  Portions of the trail are covered by snow in the winter months.
