Your pack, before you leave

Start from a preset loadout, then drag gear in and out to build your kit. Far scores every piece against your trail, the real forecast, and the month — flagging deadweight, weather mismatches, missing essentials, and overkill. Watch your Kit Score climb as you refine. Hit 100 and every check clears.

Four days. Logged before you leave.

Far splits the route at real campsites, then works out each day's distance, climb, hiking time, when to leave, and how much water to carry. Weather here is what was recorded on these dates.

Field intelligence, before you commit

Weather at every camp, checked hazards, water, daylight, and campsites, all for your route and dates. In the three days before you leave, Far re-checks the forecast and park alerts daily and shows what changed.

WEATHEROK

Checked at each night's camp, not just the trailhead. Coldest night here: Alaska Basin, Aug 13, 5°C, 7.7 mm of rain recorded.

HAZARDSCAUTION

Afternoon lightning storms: Common afternoon thunderstorms; avoid exposed ridges and summits. Source: Grand Teton National Park (NPS).

WATEROK

Day 4's longest stretch without mapped water is 4.6 km. Far plans 2.7 L to carry.

DAYLIGHTOK

Day 1 is the longest at 7.6 h of hiking. To reach camp by 5 PM, leave by 9:25 AM. Sunset that day: 8:31 PM.

CAMPSNOTE

11 mapped campsites along the route. Far only ends a day at a real site, which is why day 3 is just 8.6 km.
