[pct-l] long stretches bear can

[rizzo rizzo]

Me rizzo and bretton carried and shared a bear can from kennedy meadows to reds meadow, we skipped vvr but snagged food from the buckets at jmt ranch, there was a ton of stuff, so we basically hiked without re supply from kennedy meadowa till jmt ranch were we re supplied mostly on snacks and few more dinners, don't know the exact milage but it was quite far we also did a side trip to whitney, then resupplied in mammoth for the trip to yosemite/toulmne, we lied to the rangers and told our food all fit in the can but the truth was we had food also  in our packs, and one can held about 1/4 of our total food, eventually it fit, but very hard to fit it all in one , i wouldn't suggest carring two, we shared it mostly for the cool look it has and carried it empty on our pack switching off every other day, with food safely in our packs, which we said would all fit in the can, has long has u have a food storage device, and your within 3 feet of ur food it's my understanding ur cool with the rangers, none ever asked to proove the food fit we also fibbed about how far we were going so the wouldn't think otherwise like were not going to reds were stopping at kersage 1st then vvr, niether true, sleep with ur food and a pile of rocks and when a bear comes around say bad bear and aim for his face!,, rizzo
