Bear Vault BV500 Bear Resistant Food Canister

Item #BRV0004 | 46 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Lot's of space

By Ranked #38 - Cookware January 26, 2012

This bear barrel has a lot more room then many of the others, It takes up more room as well though. It is lighter than some of the smaller models. The opening is nice and wide as well, making putting a cook set inside easier. I can fit 10 days of food in here with nothing else. As long as I make sure to bring some very lightweight items (couscous, oatmeal, clif bars, etc.). I also like the fact that you do not need any other tool besides your hands to open this barrel. I also use it as a seat in camp. Just be sure it's 100% closed.
