Where would you swap in/out gear?
So far I have:
- Drop ice axe and spikes in either East Glacier or after the Bob (snow dependent)
- Drop bear can and spray in Lander
- Add fleece, gloves, and warmer sleeping bag in Steamboat Springs; drop bug spray
- Add extra bladder for the Basin and New Mexico
Anything missing or off-base?
Getting ready for a SOBO trek next year and wondering a couple things:
A) Where/when does the weather generally change for SOBOs? Rain, snow, heat, cold, etc? I’ll include mosquitoes, bears, and long water carries in this question. (ex., seems like NOBOs see a bunch of Colorado rain, but maybe not SOBO?)
B) Based on that, where would you swap in/out gear and why? (ex., sounds like folks send the bear can home in Lander, marking the end of grizzly country?)
Thanks!!
