[pct-l] helping out

[AsABat]

A couple years ago a trail angel filled the always-empty water tank at Mason Valley Truck Trail. Within a couple weeks it was empty, whether from hikers leaving the valve open, vandals, or the state draining it for"safety" reasons is unknown. (no use debating the latter unless you have contact that can fix it please)
