I too hiked for 7 weeks 2017.Start date July 20th. Water was the biggest problem. Feet wet everyday and every crossing knee deep or more. ( I am 5'4"). Had two dry days in August and a heat wave came

I think it’s also worth noting that there is likely to still be snow in a lot of locations on the trail this year through the entire season. You likely won’t find yourself camping on snow,

It's just right.

Just hope the bridges are still there once the snow melts. The first time I was on the JMT in Kings Canyon we went downstream along the Middle Fork of the Kings River. The bridge had just been

I second Larry- I switched from my Alpenlite to Versalite last year - is fantastic! Karina Bezkrovnaia

I echo what others have said. I am admittedly a cold sleeper. I have an EE Revelation 20. I trust that rating, but for it to work at 20° for me, I use a silk liner and an X-Therm pad (amazing!) and

No I think it is just right. you will need at least a 15 degree. Being cold at nite is bad. Early sept can go in 20s.

Take the Versalite, I believe it only weighs 2.1 lbs and most 20F bags weigh more than that,

I use a 0 degree quilt - of course with that it’s much easier to stick arms or legs out.

I'm with Ian. Better to put out a leg and an arm as radiators if you're too warm, than spend the night shivering. I did my JMT run with a 19F, and I was chilly some nights.

Too warm is much better than too cold. There will be nights when you’ll be glad of it, and nights when you leave a bunch of body parts sticking out of it.

Hello.? First time doing the JMT.? Thru-hiking beginning last week of August this year (2023).? I borrow a Versalite (Western Mountaineering) 10 degree bag.? Is this going to be too warm?

First time on JMT.? Thru-hiking NOBO beginning last week of August (2023).? ?I can borrow a Western Mountaineering Versalite (10 degree down bag).? Is this too warm for this time of year???

Adrian, That's a great, relatable story.? I owned several Lowrance units, both B&W and then the color models, before they were discontinued and I jumped to Garmin.? I volunteer to teach Map &

I provided a detailed post to the JMT FB group that summarised all the info I had regarding alternates for the big creek crossings (basically the homework I did before my July 2017 hike, supplemented

I agree that this is something to pay attention to. Safety aside, I started my trip in 2017, August 12th and it wasn't nearly the snow year this is, but it still had a lot of snow and higher

That’s a great news! And great idea to combine the apps ! Karina Bezkrovnaia

Pay attention everyone this is not a “average “ year. Wanting to go. Having the time off . Can kill you. Reality. Sorry for being realistic
