[pct-l] Skin Moisturizer

[Carol]

Grapeseed oil. Odorless, light (absorbs well.) And it's nutritionally identical to olive oil, so it can also be used for cooking.

Towards the end of the hike in the high Sierras one thing I would have killed for was skin moisturiser. I strongly recommend you pack some in your resupply at Tuolumne Meadows and Echo Lake (or buy from store and smother it on. When I came off Mt Whitney my skin was like a sheading lizard. Obviously being in low humidity for a couple of weeks sucked every bit on natural oils I had in my skin.
