So they are both long thru-hikes, and the terrain is similar. But TRT crosses into civilization now and then along the way, so you have more options for resupplying, and you can get a shower every week or so. Or you can even just duck out of the whole deal if it is not working out.

I'd be interested in hearing about it if Friendowl or any of his associates are still around. Or if anyone else has done the JMT, TRT, PCT or AT, I'd like to hear about it.
