This may be why Bristlecone pines live to be 5000 years old only at
timberline, where nutrient intake is at a minimum.
  While I believe the concept is valid, I don't think it has a place while
hiking the PCT. The more calories the better to get over those Sierra passes.
 Buttered doughnuts, please.
