Hey Folks!

I will be hiking Springer Mountain to NC (Not sure yet where I will be ending yet). I was wondering how much water to carry. I understand that everyone is different. I also understand that I will need additional water for meals, etc. On the www.appalachiantrail.org site I had seen "at least 1 quart, and 2 to 3 quarts on longer hikes in hot weather" for a day hike. I do not know how many miles they are basing that off of. I plan to hike 10-15 miles per day.

Is there an average water consumption to mile guideline?

Can't wait to experience the AT!
