Another issue I'm looking into well in advance of my trip are clean clothes for town, restaraunts, airports, etc. Did anyone mail their town clothes out from Yosemite Vally, or have a maildrop waiting in Lone Pine with some clean duds to wear after the trail? I'm anticipating that my wife's and my clothes will be thoroughly trashed after 4 weeks on the trail. (after all my sections I always had some clean clothes ready in the car to throw on after a thorough shower).
If I'm being an idiot, just let me know.
