that'd be me.......

I'll use 1,000 Island Lake as an example.  Everybody on this list knows it's
foolish to camp at 1,000 island lake unless you have a bear can.  I LOVE
camping
at 1,000 island lake, and don't believe I'm ignoring LNT practices by doing
so.
I don't even know if I'd go there if I had to just look at it, then run away
from
the bears in the area.

I believe 100 feet away from water is LNT enough, no ?
