Foiling grizzly bears and black bears at test facilities, and wild bears throughout campsites in North America, BearVault canisters have been put to the test by more bears than any other canister on the market.EASY, USER FRIENDLYBearVault is hands down the easiest bear canister to use, open and close, see and access your food, carry, and protect your food. It is lightweight yet super rugged, and keeps your food protected from raids by bears, rodents, and other wildlife.PERFECT FOR HIKING, BACKPACKING, CAMPING, CANOEING, KAYAKING, HUNTING, AND FISHING TRIPS Whether you are trekking over peaks and passes, exploring wild forests, gliding through the waters of the backwoods, or enjoying nature on an overnight adventure – put your worries aside by properly storing your food and scented items. Sit back (using your BearVault as a stool), relax, and enjoy nature.PROTECT FOOD, PROTECT BEARSThey say “a fed bear is a dead bear”, and it is true: every year over a thousand bears are put down when they become habituated to food and trash left around by people.

New BearVault products that are sold by authorized dealers come with a limited lifetime warranty. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to reach out.

Tested and approved by Grizzly (IGBC) and Black Bear (SIBBG) Testing Facilities, a BearVault even survived 48 hours locked in a cage with two hungry black bears!     EVERY OUNCE MATTERS: This is THE lightest plastic bear container on the market, for its volume.

No problem, the BearVault includes guides to strap it onto your pack. At camp, you’ll find your BV500 makes a perfect camp stool too, with a stable base and flat lid.

For a safe outdoor experience, take a BearVault with you on the trail or while exploring in bear country.

    Very hard to open in cold weather
  

*by K***W on Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2018*

I purchased this canister couple years back and used it on numerous backpacking trips in California. I find it very hard to open trying to hold the canister body while twisting the lid and pushing in the two plastic stubs. I actually have to use my swiss army knife to push  the plastic stubs in and that seems to do the job. However, on number of occasions when the weather was colder overnight, and some frost collected on the canister, opening it up by myself was impassable. It seemed like the difference in temperature expanded the two types of plastic? It literally locks it in. It took couple of us working on it as a team to open it before I could get to my morning coffee...basically a disaster ;)  I am now investing in a canister from wild ideas, it's more expensive, but I have seen it being used on number of trips and there's no double it functions much better.
