There are four locations to resupply on the trail, with most JMT hikers resupplying at 2-3 of these locations. The four locations are listed below in North to South order, with general information provided about each. Be sure to visit each resupply location’s website to see updated resupply information and instructions (links are provided below).
Most resupply packages need to be mailed 2-4 weeks in advance, and some locations require supplies to be mailed in a bucket (rather than in a cardboard box). There are also a number of horse packers that can deliver supplies on the trail, if that is necessary for your hike.
