Bear country essential

The BV500-Journey® is the gold standard for multi-day adventures, long-distance hikers, and aspirational thru-hikers. The largest and most spacious of BearVault canisters, BV500s have logged more miles than any other canister. Whether packing a few hearty meals for a group or counting every ounce of calories to reach your goal, the BV500® is up for the journey, fitting 7 plus days of food. 

Features:

• Specifically designed to be wide, round, and slippery to reduce leverage points for entry from bear jaws, claws, and paws
• Weight is low and volume is high, thanks to the durable, polycarbonate construction
• Transparent canister is easy to see into and doesn’t require you to empty the contents of the container to find specific items
• Wide opening allows you to reach in to find your tasty treats
• Screw-on lid is intuitive and secure, and doesn’t require extra tools to operate; no need to overtighten
• Strap guides aid in strapping and packing canister to your preference; an ideal place for your can is inside your pack just above your sleeping bag
• Rounded corners allow for smooth packing and removal
• Container doubles as a camp stool, a luxury most backpackers leave behind; close lid fully when using as a stool to preserve the screw-top threads
• This BearVault model has approval from both the Sierra Interagency Black Bear Group and Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee (IGBC)
