I don't mean to offend trail angels but water caches should be considered a "highly probable" source. Don't bet your life on them. How would you, or the trail angels for that matter, feel if the water cache wasn't enough to serve somebody at the tail end of the herd, perhaps because a thirsty non-thru hiker stumbled across it?

Why not add a tube of peanut butter, a tube of honey, beef jerky, instant oatmeal, dried fruit, and trail mix to your pack? You are going to punish your body enough just with the strenuous activity involved in hiking. Don't compound matters with food depravity.
