Thanks for the trip report. Sounds like a lovely trail. I've been so focused on the AT, that I skip on all these other trails.

Reading this is a good reminder to me about knowing your own limits--and being willing to stretch and grow, too.

The miles covered, and the limited amount of water you carried, are so way out of range for anything I can (currently) do. There's such a range of comfort zones/fitness levels/hiking styles, which shouldn't be too surprising to me, but it is.
