Food Drops at IR

Post by Redbad »

What is the drill for doing a food drop at IR? Is there a post office at one of the Ranger Stations or at the concessionaire?

I would like to keep the pack weight down to a manageable level while having the resources to do a circle of IR so a food drop seems like the only option.

Thanks!

USPS delivery works only at Rock Harbor and Windigo. Parcel deliveries at other locations need to be arranged via Voyageur II. Liquid and gas fuels can't be shipped. The search function should turn up lots of threads on this subject.
