  THE  PACIFIC   CREST  TRAILWAY-The    wilderness trail 
through Wonderlands-is the area across the United States of 
sufficient width to protect its wilderness character, through 
which traverses the PACIFIC CREST TRAIL SYSTEM, 2,296 miles 
long, from Canada to Mexico crossing the States of Washington, 
Oregon and California. 
  Keeping to the main summit divides of the mountain ranges 
of these states, it includes most of the principal scenic wonder- 
lands that have made the Pacific Slope world famous. 
  This Bulletin describes the geographical and topographical 
features of the TRAILWAY, averaging about twenty miles wide. 
  The entire Trail naturally and geographically divides into five 
Districts and sixteen Divisions of distinct individual character; 
with seven local trail names, as follows:
