Resupply Box Planner

Stop sending yourself food you won't want and start packing with the wisdom of experience. Resupply Box Planner is a minimalist logistics journal designed for thru-hikers and long-distance backpackers who rely on mailed resupply boxes. Instead of guessing what you'll need months in advance, this app helps you document exactly what you pack, track what was actually useful, and refine your strategy for the next trail town.

The Mechanics: Log, Open, Learn
Transform your resupply strategy from guesswork into a data-driven plan:

Pre-Mail Documentation: Create a detailed contents list for every box before you tape it shut. Know exactly which box has your favorite snacks and which one holds your replacement gear.

The "On-Trail" Review: When you open your box at the post office, log what was a "win" and what was a "waste." Did you send too many oatmeal packets? Was that specific luxury item worth the postage?

Town Capability Tracking: Note which trail towns had excellent grocery stores (making a box unnecessary) and which ones were "food deserts" where your resupply box was a lifesaver.

Gap Analysis: Record what was missing from your box that forced you to spend extra money at a local convenience store.

Master Your Trail Logistics
Build a personal database that makes you a more efficient hiker:

Historical Insights: Review past boxes from previous trails to understand your evolving tastes and needs.

Mailing Records: Keep a simple log of when and where each box was mailed to stay organized during your pre-trail prep.

No Clutter, No Noise: No calorie calculators, no meal plans, and no shipping trackers. This is a dedicated planning journal for hikers who want to learn from their own experience.
