On long trips my insulated pack start out full and putting a bear vault in it would take up so much more room it wouldn't work. |

Has anyone had experience with using a bear can (like a BearVault) placed inside of a traditional insulated food pack surrounded by ice? That would essentially secure the food from the bear scoring it, but my concern would be that a bear could drag off the pack with the can inside, and although it wouldn't get into the food due to the bearproof canister, it obviously would cause trip problems. I should add that I'm not really interested in going through the work of creating an insulated blue barrel as some have done before. |
