PCT SECTION FOOD= 10 days 20 lbs.

Hey Casey, Sorry you can't make the trip-maybe some other time. Arroyo Secco sounds great later the year. Sept-Oct I want to go back to Tehipite Valley. Do some home work on Tehipite Valley-Awesome. Thanks for the food list. All the food I have gotten together is calorie dence. I am debating between 1.5 lbs or 2 lbs a day. Sorry you can't make it. Take Care

FYI-Casey, My BPL ranking has has been at 2.26 for over three weeks now!! Go figger!!! LOL!! What is one to do?

Hey Jay,

I'm ranked at 2.72, but don't know if that has gone up or down recently.

Regarding your food, your a big guy so I'd err on the side of bringing more food. 2 lbs/day is not excessive. Be careful not to cut weight too much by substituting carbs for fat. On my Sonora Pass trip I bonked as I couldn't get energy fast enough from my high fat foods, I would have killed for some Gatorade. Or maybe I should have given myself some time to acclimate (left Bay Area in morning, started hiking at 9600 feet at noon, stopped 27.5 miles later).

Don't worry. Have a great time! The scenery around Sonora Pass is awesome.
