[pct-l] dehydrated yams/sweet potatoes

[Diane Soini of Santa Barbara Hikes]

I haven't actually tried the yams yet. I am hoping they come out  
good. Last time I went for a little overnighter on the PCT I brought  
a cooked yam (cooked at home) and put it in my coconut curry. It was  
great! So I decided I should bring dehydrated. I probably brought too  
much. I dehydrated 2 yams and 2 sweet potatoes for a 7 day trip.  
Maybe if my breakfast pemmican sucks royally I can eat the yams.
