[pct-l] Desert Water Capacity?

[Maggie Lyons Weller]

Hello,

My husband and I are attempting to thru-hike this year for the first time.
We are debating how many of liters of water we should be carrying
throughout the desert. Currently, we have to capacity to carry 11 liters
each [ (1) 6L drom, (2) 2 L Platypus, and (1) 1L plastic drinking bottle].
That would be 22L between the two of us. In light of this years water
conditions, is this completely overkill? We would appreciate any and all.
suggestions.

Thank you!
