Also for the Muir and Ansel Adams Wilderness farther north:
"
a.. Proper food storage is required to avoid having bears and wildlife eat
your food. Use bear canisters, bear resistant panniers, or the 'bear hang'
method to properly store your food and refuse. "

And Yosemite:
Don't camp close too Donahue Pass (above 9600 feet).
Don't camp within seven miles of the road at Tuolomne Meadows.
There's bear boxes near the store in the campground.

Seven miles north of Tuolomne there are no requirements.
Looks like a Bear Box and hang strategy will
work................................... legally...........................
