i have been using this page and absolutely loving it, so much great information. one thing i would really love to know is which trails have drinking water/springs. it would be so helpful to include “at km 3 there is a spring to fill up your water.”
That’s a great idea Cat! I’ve included some info about refilling water on longer trails where it is more of a concern (like Seven Summits), but I’ll consider adding to more hikes. I do need to get more familiar with which water sources are running throughout the hiking season as some creeks run dry in August/Sept.
I usually carry 2-3L on most hikes, but I know others prefer to pack light and refill.

Beautiful hike!
26(ish) newish water bars on the way up. Glad to be in a truck. The road continues on after 13.3 km and we missed the little tight switchback on the left first time past. Watch the odometer carefully and look for the little green hand painted sign.
