RE: [Philmont]: Smellable? What was that?

Dishes remain as smellables, regardless. That's why they are either bagged (in previous years) or left by the sump in the bear-muda triangle nowadays. Compared to the sump, those dishes are virtually non-smellables. Kind of like looking at a penlight in front of headlights on high beam and worried the penlight's going to blind you.
