On my backpacking trips I stopped hanging a bear bag to protect my food from bears. In this video I share what I do instead and why I think it is so much better. Additionally, I recount two bear encounters that I had in the backcountry that influenced my decision.
There are three things that I love about using bear canisters, and I share the reasons why. I also mention two things that I don’t love about bear canisters, but how these issues can be reduced.
