John Muir Trail
I am looking for someone interested in backpacking the John Muir Trail this summer, 2002. I plan to hike about 17 miles each day and take about 2 weeks to finish.

I hiked last year in 16 days...Here's some free advice...Keep your pack weight below 25 lbs...Bring lots of fats...salami..margarine..Layover 1 day at Vermillion and 1 at Mammoth. Cut your mileage back to between 12-15 miles per day. Anything past 15 is were the feet and legs begin to break down...Cheers

jadams, you might want to check out the "Wanna hike the JMT with me?" thread... post there.
