Last summer my wife and I packed two Bearacade expedition canisters with 12 days of food each. We planned 1.25 pounds per person per day. Most food was home dried and contained in zip locks. Prepackaged stuff was removed from original wrappers and packed in bulk in ziplocks. Food by weight was nuts, dried fruit, homemade jerky, corn nuts and Luna bars. Canisters weighed in at about 15 pounds at the start of the trip. We ended up with leftover food. This was the first half of a 265 mile PCT/John Muir trail hike
