Yes, in 2010 just South of Crabtree Meadows I was asked for my hiking permit
and asked to show that I had a bear can in my pack. The bear can
requirement is a good thing. It has undoubtedly saved the lives of many
bears since its inception. All hikers should follow this rule to the letter
and be happy to do so. I would hope and assume that your inquiry was merely
curiosity about the enforcement and not a feeler to see if you can get away
with ignoring the rule.

Just a question...I am familiar with the laws and know where bear cans are
required. But...has anyone been asked by a ranger to show theirs? Anyone
been fined for not having one? Thanks in advance for the info!
