[at-l] Hiker in planning slump... What would or have you done in this sit...

[Frank Looper]

Mail dropped food planned before you leave gets old <2 weeks in. I mean old
as in "I just can't eat this again," not spoiled.

In most places, hikers buy their food locally. You've got to have meds and
stuff mailed, and places like NOC and Fontana are good mail-drop places, but
those are limited.
