[pct-l] FOOD--Between Whitney and Muir Trail Ranch

[gary_schenk at verizon.net]

 You could arrange for the Onion Valley pack station to make a drop at Charlotte Lake. Depending on the time of year, of course. Or better yet have friends resupply you over Kearsarge Pass.

According to the Forest Service, you could cache some food at the bear lockers in Onion Valley for a short period of time. From the JMT to Onion Valley is not too bad. And Kearsarge Pass has some great views.

Whether going from Cottonwood or Whitney north to Muir Trail Ranch or vise versa (which I'll be doing JMT), there is no food cache in between that I know of, unless you go down into Independence. Don't wanna do that. Any of you out there go that distance with any problems with (lack of) food? Seems to me, I would have to carry close to 20 pounds of food, which could be another problem.
