I finally looked up the actual mileage for the John Muir Trail

I found out it's 211 miles, not the 'roughly 200' everyone says, which makes planning food drops a lot different. Has anyone else had to adjust their resupply because of a small stat like that?

Oh man, that extra 11 miles is no joke! It's crazy how a small number can totally throw off your food math. That's the difference between a hungry last day and a comfortable finish. Always better to find out now than when you're out there rationing your last granola bar.

But is it really that big of a deal? People pack way too much food anyway lol. You can always just eat a little less for a day.
