JMT Planning 5 – The Resupply –What to put in that box

I would have to say this has been one of the HARDEST parts of the planning!  I would often wonder do I have enough, what if this or what if I hate that by this point, and what if I want something else and don’t have it! It was a mess.  But with my itinerary I had a plan, kinda.  This is hard because most of the time I do not even know what I want to eat for my next meal and now I have to plan my meals more than a month out!  Craziness! 

So this is what I did.

I planned 1 of each of the following for every day:

Breakfast, lunch, dinner, energy something, bar, treat, coffee, Juice Plus blend capsules, electrolyte drink, baby wipe, face wipe, 4 squares toilet paper

Than the extras:

Travel size toothpaste & floss
Pee rag
Extra toilet paper
1 - Gallon Ziplock (one for trash bag and one extra)
2 - Quart ziplocks
Trash compactor bag
Q-Tips (to use that day)
Batteries for Headlamp
Special snack/treat (in my case Girl Scout cookies I’ve been saving for months)
First aid kit – moleskin, painkillers (aspirin and Advil), hand sanitizer, bug spray
Shampoo, conditioner, lotion (if you plan on taking a real shower!!!)
Sunblock
New socks & Underwear
Bic Lighter, Firestarter
Wall USB charger (with 2 slots) will donate to location.
 
My Breakfast meals are typically:
Oatmeal with protein powder mixed in, granola with powdered milk and powdered protein, cereal with powdered milk, pop-tarts, or a breakfast bar.

Lunches:

Tortilla with hummus, sausage, and cheese
Tortilla with hummus and tuna (in olive oil)
Tortilla with peanut butter or Nutella and Jelly
Pro-meal bars

Dinner:

Mostly dehydrated from Mountain House, Good to go, Packit Gourmet, or Backpacker’s Pantry
I also enjoy Ramon with Just Veggies mixed in! 

Energy Something: Honey stinger Wafers, Honey Stinger blocks, Gu blocks, Jelly Beans

Bar: Kind bars, Special K protein bars, cliff bars

Treat: Chocolate! Starburst! Gummy Bears! Snickers!

Things others may want but I didn’t include because it isn’t needed:

Memory card for a camera and extra batteries for that

 Excited to be mailing off my first resupply bucket to MTR.

What other items do you think you would take or have taken that was amazing?
