...unless rodents get to it.

Don't forget, some rodents have two legs.  I spoke to a guy at kickoff who said he always looked for where people might have stashed resuply in order to "reduce the cost of his trip".

I kid you not...

My goal is to finish in 4 months so I'm guessing  150 miles between each resupply. All of Oregon and Washington boxes are being dropped off with pre designated trail angels. Can't wait for the advice and negatives that come from this choice. Cost of gas under $200 whereas shipping cost would be over $300. Comments or advice welcome.
