@3318ryan not much an expert though I have read something about only using scentless deodorant and soaps.

Should you hang just food or anything with a scent? Soap and deodorant and the like?

Don't hang food in a national park, It is ILLEGAL! You must use a bear keg approved on the NPS website TRUST ME! A fight you won't win!
