[pct-l] JMT Bear Cans

[Sukhyung Shin]

As far as i know, a bear can is required for the entire JMT.  they used to
have bear lockers in many places: rae lakes, kearsarge lakes, tyndall creek
etc, but starting last summer they have locked/removed all of those and
just require hikers to carry bear cans.
