yeh one would think that other hikers would figure it out but they didn't and
claimed b/c it was next to the hiker box and they thought a hiker got off trail
and gave it away, which in a way I understand, but not really. I would never go
without questioning all that gear in one box for free. Food maybe but not $500
worth of gear...no way!

Yeah I heard about something similar happening, or just issues in general. I
think I'm going to use the PO. I was originally going to resupply at the
C-store, but an update on Yogi's site warns against that. That really sucks that
hikers would help themselves to peoples boxes/gear, especially if someone's name
is on it with "Hold for PCT hiker," "ETA," ect. Figured I wouldn't have to look
out for people like that. Or maybe I'll just rig my boxes with bear mace traps.
Anyhow, thanks for the heads up,
Sam

Just some FYI...I don't suggest mailing any packages to the ranch. Last year,
they placed all the resupply boxes right next to the hiker box. myself and a
few others had our boxes rummaged through and not just food but also some gear
stolen. They weren't very helpful when this occurred either and told us that
they did it this way for many years with no issues. Didn't even offer us a soda
much less something to eat after we reported all our food was gone. They may
have changed their procedure since then but be weary. Losing ur food and gear
while hiking and being in the middle of no where in a rinky dink town is NO FUN!
