Awesome, you're halfway through the 2,650-mile Pacific Crest Trail - whether you started at the Canadian or Mexican border. At the very least, this is the ideal point to mark the halfway point of your journey. Every year, however, mostly fire closures change the actual hikeable route and thus the actual length. Either way, you can be happy, because from now on you will be closer to your destination than to your starting point!

A somewhat official trailpost proclaiming the PCT Midpoint. If you started about 1325 miles ago at the Mexican or Canadian border, you're halfway done. More or less. According to some apps and maps, as of 2019, the halfway monument sits at mile 1320.7. It's not quite the halfway point anymore—Halfmile, the gentleman who maintains the most up-to-date PCT mapsets, suggested at that time it's at mile 1325.1.
To quote the PCT Association: "We say that the Pacific Crest Trail is 2,650 miles long. Is it? Probably not, but no one knows for sure. The tread moves every year, sometimes adding or subtracting miles at a time. Various places on the internet declare more specific lengths. Take them with a grain of salt. The PCT has never been mapped with tools that would provide a truly accurate distance for the trail. What data sets that do exist were generally gathered with consumer level tools and do not take in to account the various changes that happen every season. Years ago, PCTA decided to settle on a number. We can’t re-print t-shirts and remake trail signs every season as the tread moves. The Pacific Crest Trail is around 2,650 miles and that’s accurate to within 10 or so miles." pcta.org/discover-the-trail/faq
Anyways, a celebration is always in order. Keep going to the crossing of Hwy 89 where you'll probably find a cooler with beer and other trail magic to celebrate.
