The hike is a fundraiser for Parkinson's research and awareness by including Parkinson's people (Parkies) on the Pacific Crest Trail southbound from Stevens Pass to Snoqualmie Pass (Washington section J) www.pctmap.net. The dates are August 20-28, 2016. It will be pack supported with two wranglers and several mules. We will average 9.25 miles with approximately 2000 elevation gain per day and a total of 72 miles.
Participants will hike with light day packs with mule support. We are presently recruiting several experienced hikers with PD (pre or post-DBS) and support hikers. Our team will be limited to 12 people.
