I still keep the bag in memory of the heroic rescue techniques we applied. :) I use a z-drag to hang the food. It beats hauling a high-friction line over a branch and I get almost a two to one mechanical advantage (i.e. 50 lb of food feels like 25). The downside is you need about twice as much line.
