BearVault BV500 Journey Bear Canister

Food protection that keeps your wild adventure going, the BearVault BV500 Journey bear canister features simple access and a light weight-to-volume ratio for a 7-day solo backpacking trip.

Features

• Specifically designed to be wide, round and slippery to reduce leverage points for entry from bear jaws, claws and paws
• Weight is low and volume is high, thanks to the durable, polycarbonate construction
• Screw-on lid is intuitive and secure, and doesn’t require extra tools to operate; no need to overtighten; see instructional video on how to properly open and close container
• Transparent canister is easy to see into and doesn’t require you to empty the contents of the container to find specific items
• Wide opening allows you to reach all the way in to find your tasty treats
• Strap guides aid in strapping and packing canister to your preference; an ideal place for your can is inside your pack just above your sleeping bag
• Container doubles as a camp stool, a luxury most backpackers leave behind; close lid fully when using as a stool to preserve the screw-top threads
• This BearVault model has approval from both the Sierra Interagency Black Bear Group and Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee
• Stash on the ground or in a niche 100 ft. downwind of camp and cooking site; do not hang; never keep BearVault inside your tent
• Wipe rim clean of dirt and grime, and clean with mild soap and warm water; use a dry bag with your canister near saltwater; apply food-grade silicone to threads as needed
• Note: harsh chemicals will destroy the plastic; keep DEET and other strong chemicals away, or double bag it carefully if storing inside
• When not using, store in a dry, cool place out of UV sun rays
