"Also, thru-hikers can
walk 25 miles on 2 quarts of water and so if toward the end of the
day they pull into a source and can fill up the bottles again, they
will be of the opinion that there was plenty of water."

Really? 25 miles on the Hat Creek Rim in July at 100+degrees with 2 quarts?

I just want to warn hikers that, as you said, know your body, as YMMV. I
would drink 5 quarts in 25 miles and still be dehydrated in those
conditions.
