[pct-l] Bear canisters and duct tape

[Ann Marie]

I've just completed my second JMT hike in 3 years. I've yet to see a bear or have one play with my bear canister.    I'm disappointed......      And NO, bears seen in campgrounds do not count (I haven't even seen one in one of those...............sigh........)

Count yourself extremely fortunate to see a bear in the wild. I'd give anything for a close up glimpse (okay.....30 or 40 or 50 feet away.....................)
