This is stupid.

Where animals can get at it and throw it all over the park?
Or you could just be a decent human and take your refuse with you?

This has been a solved problem for decades. Animal resistant bins have been standard in parks for ages.
Just one of literally hundreds of examples: cbc.ca/…/bear-proof-garbage-bins-made-in-lethbrid…
Maybe they will, maybe they won’t. Either way, I’d have to wait in line or skip ahead+interrupt staff and the waiting customers instead of just putting the garbage that I was given into a provided bin out front.
I agree with the concept of ‘pack in, pack out’, if you brought it to a site, you take it back out with you. But If I go to a location and am given garbage while I’m there, I expect there to be somewhere I can dispose of it. I’m not packing more home than I brought with me.
I’m also not saying there should be bins all throughout the forest; just in this context where it’s effectively a food court, not providing a bin is ridiculous.

Key word being resistant dude…. They aren’t fool proof and they don’t always work.
Also this absolute nugget…
