PCT Stevens to Snoqual

need some help/advice about the trek, want to take my time and immerse in the wilderness, not interested in 78 miles in 4 days...more like 6 days. Went to the edge of A.L.P. yesterday and it is still snowbound pretty bad. Trip wont be til late August, probabaly solo as well.
Anybody got anything for me?
