[pct-l] rope?

[Donna Saufley]

Hanging food is no longer allowed in the Sierras.  That said, I carried 50’
of light reflective line, not what I would term “rope.”  Only used it a few
times to hang laundry.  There was really no other need for it, but it’s one
of those things that is recommended for emergency situations.

Hi everyone, 

happy new year!!!

one question: rope? no one seems to mention rope, i don't see it on gear
lists. Have I missed something? people talk about using their food as a
pillow, and then occasionally using a bear canister/locker. 

what is the deal? does anyone take rope and hang food? what about the
mice/skunks/whatevers that bore holes in food bags?


thanks, 
mondog
