Seems like one would need 50L pack for 3 days on the trail considering rain is in the forecast (rain jacket and pants). Probably easily going over 16-20 lbs in that pack with bag/pad/clothes/water. Novice hikers too.

yes, the kids are using 50L packs...water weight seems to be the big issue.

I am guessing most of the kids are novices.

seems like a great trip but they didn't account for the weight of the packs.
