How many miles did you make each day? How much did your packs weigh? Three overnighters? Did you use bearbags or canisters? It looked great. Thanks.

Thanks for watching! We took our time, and we only did about 6 miles a day on average. 4 overnighter on this loop. Packs are about 40 pounds at the beginning. I do not own a canister, but I hung my stuff sacks for the most part. A few sites had small bear boxes that you can use. Enjoy it if you try it!
