[pct-l] Ursack lack of volume

I am leaving Thursday to start the PCT from Walker Pass to Manning. My plan is to start relatively slowly and
work up to thru-hiker pace. My resupply from KM to Kearsage/Independence is 7 days. The food weighs 16
lbs. My Ursack is stuffed full and I have food left over. I think it will be OK for the 3-5 day resupply's. For 7
days it doesn't have the volume. How should I protect the leftover food in the Sierras? Rent a canister for just
the Sierras? I only have 3 resupply's that are in the 6 to 7 day range. Most of them fall in the 2-5 day range.
I bought this puppy for this trip. It seemed like a good compromise. Thanks, Gene
