“I backpacked the Teton Crest trail last summer. I used my BearVault on the trail and had a black bear try really hard to get into it. He put a lot of deep gashes on the lid but was never able to get into it. The deep gouges are kind of like a souvenir from the trip. I also have another bear canister but I like yours better. They are lighter. They also don’t get water in them if I forget to turn them upside down and it rains.” – Paula

This summer, we had our BearVault 500 with us in the High Sierra’s. While camping at Badger Lakes Thousand Island Lake and Island Pass, we had a bear visit. The bear pulled out our BearVault from where it was stashed between a rock and log. We found it about 20 feet away, covered in dust, paw marks, dried drool and a few scratches, but totally intact and secure. Good stuff.

We were camping at Clouds Rest Junction in Yosemite when another party alerted us that there was a bear playing with our canister He was chomping on the top of it even when we made noise and got loud. With enough time and enough noise he left it alone. It was covered in saliva, but the bear didn't get in! The bear moved on with his life and our food was safe!” – Maren

"While thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail, a mother bear and several cubs tried for more than four hours to get into my BV450. The canister was rolled around, and scratched, but all the food was good and the canister was intact. This meant we were able to continue the next 30 mile leg of the trail without having to turn back! BearVault sent me a new canister on the trail so that I could continue my thru-hike." - Kaitlyn

Where do I need a BearVault?

Much of North America is home to Grizzly Bears and Black Bears. We all have a responsibility to protect these incredible creatures and the wild spaces where they live. This starts with properly storing your food so that bears can live naturally and your trip stays safe and fun!

In addition to the many parks, forests, and trails that mandate the use of bear resistant food storage, we recommend carrying your BearVault in all places inhabited by bears.
