    It's a unique vacation that begins in a Mexican desert at its hottest and ends smack-dab in the middle of a Canadian winter, but those who travel the Pacific Crest Trail take pride in their uniqueness. A thru-hiker on the Pacific Crest Trail learns a new reckoning for time, distance, and even neglected hygiene while making the 2,650-mile journey through twenty-four national parks, thirty-three wildernesses, and six out of the seven climate zones in North America. The word "epic" gets thrown around a lot these days, but the Pacific Crest Trail earns the distinction.
