It was reported early that they were told to bring food and water for a couple of days, it was a "shelter of last resort", meaning nothing was going to be there."
They were told to come prepared for five days but that is unrealistic. My baseweight (pack, bag and shelter) runs 14 pounds, food runs two pounds a day (rehydrated weight) and you figure on a gallon a day of water each ( I carry a filter and chlorine). Just the water runs 35 pounds plus base, 50 pounds per person, and food on top of that.
