[pct-l] Re: Independence Resupply



Carolyn,
You should have no problem if you carry onions.  The bears in the area have a 
very unique sensory gland particular to onion mitochondria....hence the name 
Onion Valley.  Hikers who carry onions have been known to be able to ride 
these friendly bears down to Independence for resupply.  If the correct onion 
is carried, they may even give you a ride back to the Pass!  Good luck.
