[Path-list] Fwd: Guthook comments, 5/23 - 5/27

[Ron Hudnell]

Jim,

Most Sep-Oct hikers on our section will be SOBOs, but the water 
situation is the same.

I could vote for some signs in the Jenkins/Chestnut shelters reminding 
hikers of water points and to be diligent on water planning during the 
dry months.  I do not think we need to bring water to 623.

Ron H.
