Here is an example of a complete thru-hiking gear list for the Pacific Crest Trail. If you are planning to hike the entire 2,650+ mile trail from Mexico to Canada, this list includes everything I think you’ll need during the typical hiking season (Northbound: Apr-Sept) (Southbound: Jun-Nov.)

The Pacific Crest Trail passes through different zones which require specific gear (like the SoCal Desert and High Sierras.) Some items, such as clothing, will wear out and need to be replaced over the course of a 4-6 month hike. Feel free to use this template to design your own gear list.
