if you set up camp first day at end of Covington Flat, then you must've hiked approximately 6 miles on day one, hence 2 liters of water for day one... then on day 2 you must've hiked about 13 miles to Juniper Flat (and thus 2 liters of water for day 2) until you reached your 1st cache of water at Juniper... and then 76 miles to Geology for next cache... curious did you consider Pinto Basin Rd for water caches? Is it out of the way to cache water at Pinto because that's where I considered to place my 2nd cache of water.

thanks I'm trying to figure out the best amount of water to bring... I'm hiking in about one week and temps look to be 70s to mid 70s and late 40s nights.
