[pct-l] Don't cook/sleep in the same spot...

[Postholer]

Regardless of the food handling techniques you use in bear areas don't cook 
in the same spot that you sleep.

In problem bear areas never camp at established camp sites.

You are giving bears a *huge* invitation for a late night visit. Stock have 
much greater limitations than the hiker on foot. As a hiker, why would you 
want to camp anywhere near dusty, smelly areas created by stock?

If you cook, prepare your meal earlier in the day, late afternoon or 
whatever. Then hike on for an hour or two and camp doing any cleanup at a 
water source you may pass. Ideally, you don't want to eat at all in the 
place that you sleep.
