I am putting together the stashes for Chariot Canyon and Scissor's
Crossing.  For these stashes the water will be in 1 1/2 liter bottles.
Unless someone opens one and only takes a portion, you can be guaranteed of
the purity by the seal on the cap of the bottles.  

You will be able to tell these stashes from others (see Charlie's message)
by the container they are in: blue and white plastic chest with a PCT
emblem and message stating "Water for PCT long distance hikers only!.

I'll post more info later.
