Hey All,
Im about to embark on a 50 mile 3-4 day hike in Arizona. Im curious what people would recommend for the amount of water I should drink a day. The elevation will be a steady 5-6000 feet, alternating between these two, so there wont be huge days of uphill hiking. The temp is around 70 for a high during the day and 38 at night, and dry dry dry, just about perfect for hiking imo. Im planning to go with 4 liters a day, and am stashing water caches near the places im camping each night. Each day will be approx 15-20 miles of hiking. Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions.
Thanks :D
