[pct-l] Paying for SAR

[JPL]

The map doesn't show a trail...  from what I can tell you're off-trail 
hiking in the canyon.

Not sure.  I haven't been there since I was a boy scout (loooong time ago).
My friend got into trouble with 105 degree heat (dummy!)  I do know that at
least one of the trails was covered by a landslide a few years ago and that
presents a challenge but other than that if one stays on trail it shouldn't
be too bad.  You live in this area?

What's the deal with Tenaya Canyon; there are some pretty serious sounding
warnings on the maps.

>"Some day, we may not have a choice but to close the gate"

Given the choice between being locked out of public land or having no rescue
service
I would pick no rescue.  When I got my backcountry permit to solo up and
spend the night
in Tenaya canyon I was told just that, "No one will come looking for you".
I told them I
was fine with that.  I don't want a nanny looking out for me.
