This was a very helpful read for me. I live in Reno, So Tahoe is right next door. At 59 yrs old I have become obsessed with the PCT. But I don't know if it is for me. The TRT is going to be my adventure next summer!
If they are out there at the same time and day, you’d probably have a good chance of a happenstance meetup right on the trail. But for pre-planning, a post in our Regional Discussions would be my suggestion.
