[pct-l] Fire and smokers

[Edward Anderson]

Some smokers are really careless. Yesterday I took a ten-mile + ride on my friend Primo out of my home in Agua Dulce. At on spot while passing through Vasquez Rocks Park I looked down from the saddle and saw a cigarette laying near the edge of a 3' wide part of the trail. It wad out but it did not appear that it had been put out. There was dry vegetation within inches. That's one way fires are started. Also, even if it is out, it is litter. I'm sure it was dropped by a careless day-hiker.
