I want to hike the JMT, but don't know how to start – not an american
HI! im having a few months vacation in USA, and i want to include in my vacation a long hike, i've heard about this trail, but it have no idea how to start preparing.
Is there any good guidebook?
How and where can i get the trail permit?
Are there any organized group, which i can join?
where can i get food supply?
how intense is the trail for non-professional hiker?
what is the overall cost for hiking (food,water,permit) (without gear costs)?
Thank you,
Alon
