[pct-l] I'm wondering what is the most reasonable amount of days between resupplies?

Rich,
On my 2014 PCT Thru-hike my base weight was about 15 lbs, and leaving
Tehachapi I had 7 days of food and 7 liters of water. At 2 lbs of food
per day and 2.2 lbs per liter of water I was slogging up that climb from
Highway 58 with about 15+7*2+7*2.2 or 44.4 lbs. All I can say was that I
did it, but having always to carry that load would not be enjoyable.
YMMV and HYOH.
Sincerely,
Tartan
