[pct-l] Re: What do use to carry your 2 gallons per day of water inthe desert? Marzipan



There's LOTS of waterless stretches over 16 miles.
 
A quick glance in my BRAND NEW data book shows 13 waterless stretches 
in SoCal which are longer than 16 miles.
 
In 2001, I carried 8 liters of water a handful of times.  In 2002 and 2003, a full 
load was usually 6-7 liters.  
 
I had to chuckle when I saw on Page 9 the "Elevation Profile for Entire Pacific 
Coast Trail from Mexico to Canada."
 
The Pacific COAST Trail.  I always tease my Mom for saying "coast" instead 
of "crest".  I guess she was right all along!  :)  :)  :)

2 Platypus or is that Platypi
2 liter soda pop bottle
20 oz gatorade bottle
