[pct-l] First required place for bear canister

Plain Slice and Little Engine have bear claw holes in the mosquito netting
of their tent courtesy of a juvenile delinquent bear, because they attempted
to camp at Joshua Tree Spring.  Coolest tent decorations on anybodies tent I
saw all summer as you can really see the spread of the bears claws.  It was
always quite a tourist destination for newcomers to our camps who marveled
at the holes they had stitched up with yarn.

Yogi warns against camping here, and although you'll need the water by that
point, and it's a really nice looking camp, the fresh bear scat all around
was enough to make it clear that it is Mr. Bruin's territory, and not ours.
