A hiker in Glacier told me to trash my trail snacks, best advice ever
He spotted me munching a granola bar at Many Glacier and said 'bears can smell that from a mile, granola AND your wrapper stay on you all day,' so I swapped to a sealed ziplock with jerky for the Highline Trail, anyone else changed their food routine after a stranger scared you straight?

Three years ago a guy at Yellowstone told me my sunscreen was basically a bear buffet. Said the coconut scent in most brands carries for miles when you sweat. Never thought about it before then. I still use sunscreen but I wash my hands before I dig in my pack for food. Did you also ditch your deodorant or just the snacks?
