Thanks for the heads up on the heat, water and bear issues encountered by starting at walker. I am planning my section hike this year starting with G and hiking to Donner pass. My start is on or about June 15. I have spoken with several multiple thrus and they like the plan but also mentioned the issues you described. I am more concerned about the snow/ice levels in the Sierra. Yes, the pack will be heavier than normal, besides the fact that all recommend bear cannisters (2# penalty) thru this section. I calculate the herb may be behind me by a week or so. However, those not caught in the TA vortexes may very well be ahead of me. Thanks-
