Food
Glacier -- i assume there are resupply options at auto campgrounds
The BOB -- i typically carry 5-6 days food but the hike from Summit cg to Benchmark is about 118 mi, or more like 130 if i resupply at East Glacier. so my concern is, at at, say, a 15 m/day pace how do i manage that if its 8-9 days? other than just packing tighter/heavier (or with with less food) or walking more mi/day, is there a short hike off trail half way perhaps for a resupply? i didn't see that on any maps though...
