I was out hiking along portions of the PCT the past few days and got to wondering - Hiking north, when's the last time in CA the PCT crosses:
13,000ft? - Forester Pass
12,000ft? - Pinchot Pass
11,000ft?
10,000ft?
9,000ft?

Me thinks you are correct. At least that's what I came up with by perusing the maps the other night.

Slight correction: the trail goes over 10,000ft a short distance north of Sonora Pass, while wrapping around the SE side of Sonora Peak.
As I was posting this, I noticed Iron Hiker got it in a few moments ahead of me...
