And I'm no expert on thru-hiking, since these days 30 miles is a 6-day trip for me! In my salad days, I did a lot of long-distance horse packing, though, with our family horses (i.e. doing all the work ourselves. We took 6-7 week trips in the Wyoming and Colorado Rockies every summer, with 2 resupplies during each trip. Some days I had to hike as far as I rode to find the horses!
