Bear Vault BV350 Solo Bear Resistant Food Canister

Solid container

By Ranked #1858 - Cookware October 2, 2007

I bought this container for peace of mind on a backcountry trip in grizzly country, and it served its purpose. Seemingly sturdy, I liked the transparency of the container and the no-tool-necessary unscrewing of the lid, but had trouble opening it sometimes when my hands were very dry or cold (temperatures were around freezing in the mornings). The four-day size was fine for my solo trip; very tight, efficient packing would probably be necessary for two people. Definitely adds weight to the backpack but I didn't know I wanted to have this as an alternative to using a bear bag since I was going by myself(turns out I put it up high anyway using a stuff sack).
