[pct-l] Help needed to stock 3rd Gate Cache

Water caches on public lands are illegal.

Charlie Jones who has made all manner of threats against hikers for not 
carrying bear canisters happily advocates illegal water caches.

Creating hiker dependence on these caches at the expense of hiker safety is 
apparently OK as well. Of course the blight created by folks who should 
clearly know better is OK, too.

What's interesting, the request for help stocking the cache usually appears 
on this list, but it didn't this year. Maybe the cachers are limiting their 
visibility to avoid liability? Or maybe some form of guilt or shame? Maybe 
they just realize how wrong it is, but can't escape the dependence they 
create among hiker?

Whatever the reason, it is interesting.
