Sorry to hear about your resupply problem. I used UPS to ship to Big Sandy,
and had absolutely no problem with delivery to S. Pass City. In fact, I sent
a first class envelope there last Friday afternoon and it was there Tuesday
morning! I've had slower deliveries across-town.

route (mostly). The water sources were all pretty
decent, never more than ~18 miles between... and
most of them were rather clean.
Glad to hear your good news about the water sources in the GDB. Brian is
crossing the basin now, and should reach Rawlins sometime tomorrow
(Saturday.)

other person I meet either says "that's way too
late" or "that's no problem at all"... I guess
we'll see what mother nature has to say.
Let's hope the optimists are right. Brian plans to reach Cumbres Pass about
September 23rd. He will probably cross paths with you somewhere down toward
Steamboat Springs. Have a great hike!
