While hiking the Four Mile Trail starting at Glacier Point, we noticed a metal box with a lock on it along the edge of the path. We surmise that this is a box of rescue gear that might be needed when hikers need assistance.

Notice the lock on the box which we conjecture is enough to keep the contents away from those who are unauthorized.

NOTE – If you want to see a reason why such an item might be necessary, you can review Day 25’s post Warning Signs related to the Four Mile Trail.
