[pct-l] Re-Supply at Tuolumne Meadows (and VVR)

[Eugene]

Bill, 

 

I'm SOOOO very glad you're on PCT-L.  This is great great news.  You're literally taking a big load off my back.  Thank you very much!

It takes them some time to stock up after they open for the seaon (I was there in early 2007 when they'd only been opened a week and it was pretty bare). They could get cleaned out by the weekend hordes that visit in summer. That said, when I showed up on a Sunday July 12,2009, I found the store very well stocked with anything that I could have asked for. I could have easily resupplied here (though it would cost more then sending a box). I believe they had yellow HEET on the shelf. I also found alcohol back at VVR. Since you are asking about alcohol, I take it you are thinking about skipping Mammoth Lakes (the first real town in a long time)?
