Re: [pct-l] Bear Boxes

Hikers,

(This is a reprint of a data that I posted in the fall of '96. Most of the
data was from a list available at the Ranger Station in Lone Pine, CA.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Perhaps you are like me and didn't know this information existed nor how
important it would be to you while hiking the JMT/PCT. Trust me. Print this
information and take it with you on the trail; you'll be glad you did.
