I mean, a lot so I go through tons of water and I'm afraid to load up my UL pack with tons of water weight. Thus, after the desert part I would switch to my UL backpack. Anybody got any thoughts on this. Scott  		 	   		  

I'd say the desert sections end at Kennedy Meadows but if your concern is sweating, I'm not sure that helps. Northern California can be quite hot during thru-hiker season, for example.
