I mailed my first supply drop this morning to Fontana Dam, NC. Hopefully I am not too optimistic in waiting 164 miles after I start for supplies. There are a couple of towns before I get there where I can resupply but not much at Fontana Dam. After there is the Smoky mountains with fewer opportunities.
I packed my backpack for the airplane checking and double checking my list. I weighed it when it was full and it was 37 lbs. That was without water, fuel and my AT guide. Need to get the weight down. I don't want more than 35 lbs fully loaded. Maybe I have too much food and clothing. I don't know what else I can cut.
