[pct-l] Bear Canister thoughts

[reynolds@xxxxxxxx (Reynolds, WT)]

Sly-

Bears are crashing tents for food. There was an incident in Center Basin.
This was the incident that caused Kings Canyon to implement the Forrester to
Woods Creek zone.

Don't tell me that was you!

PS: Another at 1000 island lakes

Why's that?

I'm still waiting to hear about a hiker that has actually had a bear problem
that sleeps with their food.  Not some story about someone's friends cousin.

YMMV
