Re-supply-White House Landing

#1

This year I finish! Yeah, after a few years of section hiking I will hopefully summit October 5, 2007.

Just a quick question for anyone who hiked in '06 or just knows the answer…what’s on the food list of re-supply items at White House Landing?

First thing on the ressuply list should be a fatty-1 pound burger and a beer, which really hits the spot after the 70 miles out of monson. i forget what they had exactly. perhaps granola, ramen, and maybe some liptons. they had enough to do the 30 miles into abol bridge. definitely worth the stop

Slick B is right on target. The burgers are just the best. I think they had a pretty sufficient supply for the last of the trip. Bogie and I finished our years of section hikes too last year–July 8. Excitement at seeing the Big K will help carry you to the finish. Good luck and enjoy the summitt.

Just watch your timing there - for lunch I think you have to be at the landing between noon and 12:30. I’m not sure what the dinner schedule is, but I’m sure it’s just as strict. Lots of food to choose from, tho.

Thanks to all who replied. Your info sure made planning for this last section much easier.

I was at White House Landing on Wednesday. They serve lunch from 11am - 1pm and dinner from 5pm - 6pm. The one pound cheeseburgers are incredible and I hear their homemade pizzas are great as well.

As far as resupply, they have ramen noodles, pasta packs, rice packs, power bars, chips, sodas, candy bars, fuel, toilet paper, OTC medicine, some powder drinks, etc. They are a little more expensive than a typical store but just keep in mind where you are at the time. I think power bars were like $1.95 each, so you are paying an extra $0.50 each.

Spend the night, eat burger for lunch, pizza for dinner,kick butt breakfast and 2 15’s to Abol bridge store/campsite and canned food for dinner and egg/sausage biscuits for breakfast. resupply for a couple days depending on K weather. It’s all about the food when you get this far!! sandman GA-ME '06 O.D.A.A.T.
