[pct-l] Buy as you go

[Ken Powers]

We arrived at Reds Meadow before the store was open - twice.

All those are good.
Tuolumne, though, runs out of things.
I'm glad I've always sent my resupply there.

At least twice they have been out of bug repellant.
Wrong place to be without.

I was just at Tehachapi and Idyllwild this weekend and they are both great
towns to resupply at...Big Bear is too...I've been there several times. The
little store in Tuolumne is pretty awesome too...O and Mammoth (reds Meadow)
is a great spot as well

For those of us who prefer to buy as we go, which towns along the trail
currently have decent stores and which require maildrops? There were some
good articles a few years ago about buy as you go resupply strategies, but I
haven't seen anything online recently that gives a simple list of where we
can expect to be able to resupply and where we have to mail food. I know
some of the resupply stops we used when we hiked nine years ago have
changed, so the old info isn't valid.
