I'm contemplating hiking the JMT but I just don't have the time to do it all at once - I have reviewed some maps and it looks like the entire trail can be broken down into three attainable sections (North to South) which I am thinking of doing over the next three years -
Section 1 would be Litlle Yosemite Valley to Reds Meadow - Section 2 would be Reds Meadow to Le Conte Canyon - coming out via South Lake - and the 3rd section would be from Le Conte to Whitney.
Does anyone have any other potential section breakdowns that might be better?
Also, how long would each section take assuming a 10-12 mile day for each one (I'm 51 and not as hearty as some of you guys)
Thanks for your input!
