[pct-l] popcorn expertise? or Power on the PCT
Switchback,
Bears are plentiful on the JMT and they love buttered pop corn.
Say, I was wondering how are you going to cram all that buttered pop corn in
your bear canister?

Switchback the Korny replies: Say, you should try the Jolly Time
Butter-Licious microwave popcorn. I cook it at work on my office microwave
that sits on
top of my office refrig full of cold drinks. This is because I am desperate
for a snack break. Plus, I get a lot more work done taking a popcorn lunch
at my desk/computer. Nice.
The Jolly Time is not the super best grade of gourmet popcorn cooked with
white Crisco, but it is not bad at all. I bought a large bag of popcorn at
Whole Foods and might take that too on the Mt. Whitney Expedition. I have
absolutely no doubt that if a PCT hiker was banging along the trail and
getting
worn out, they would get a tremendous pick-up from a popcorn snack. Super
trail power. I have done this. In fact, this might be my main staple on
my
PCT/JMT Section Unsupported Record attempt. I will have 4 or 5 of those
giant
monster bags you can get at the Walmart SuperStore. They look like jumbo
leaf
trash bags full of popcorn.
