Thanks Paul, BobR and everybody else for helping!

We decided to use the hikers resupply service of Eastern Sierra Suttle Service.
We do like to stay on the trail and because of that I find the costs reasonable, especially because we hardly have any other options when we want to stay on the trail.

I know it might be cheaper to arrange something with an individual person who would like to combine hiking and earningh some money, but for us this seemes a more secure arrangement.

I also became a member of the Yahoo Group. Great way to get a lot of information!

I am very interested in sharing resupply service at the LeConte Ranger Station. July 10 would fit our schedule quite nicely. There will be 2-3 of us. Please tell me the best way to formalize plans with you.

Sorry John. We completed the JMT last year. Try the Yahoo group.

Marla, Can I ask if ended up successfully using this resupply? And if so how well the resupply went?

Thanks!

Jake,

We were very content with this service. Next time we would do it again.
With adding Paul to our Spot contacts and clear arrangements before leaving about this, we could let Paul know we were a day ahead of schedule.
The only minor point was that the hiker was a bit late, which made us insecure for some time about the right spot we agreed to meet and about getting a resupply at all.

But all in all for us it was a great solution!
