Compact Bear-Resistant Canister - Large

The new BV475 Trek is a midsized bear-resistant food storage option that is shorter and more compact than the larger BV500 model, yet still light and roomy enough to accommodate 5-6 days' worth of camp food or more. This makes it a great choice for smaller groups and family trips.

Despite its shorter height, the BV475 Trek features rounded corners that facilitate easy packing, and includes strap guides that allow it to be secured sideways in most medium to large backpacking packs. Despite its compact size, the container is still lightweight yet remarkably durable and rugged.

The clear sides and wide opening of the BV475 Trek make it easy to quickly locate and access your next meal, helping you stay organized without having to dump the contents onto the forest floor. The large capacity and user-friendly design make this bear-resistant container a breeze to use.

An added bonus is the simple, tool-free screw-top opening, which eliminates the need for coins or tools to access the contents. When you reach your campsite, the bear-resistant storage unit can even double as a sturdy camp stool, providing a convenient place to sit.

Like all BearVault products, the BV475 Trek has been rigorously tested and approved by the Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee (IGBC) as bear-resistant. It offers the same high-quality design, construction, and bear-worthiness as the classic BearVault models, effectively deterring a wide range of wildlife from accessing your food supplies.

Whether you're a solo backpacker, part of a small group, or heading out on a family adventure, the BV475 Trek provides a compact, lightweight, and user-friendly solution for keeping your food secure from bears and other curious critters. Its rounded corners, strap guides, and transparent design make it easy to pack and organize, while the tool-free access and dual-purpose functionality as a camp stool add to its versatility.

Ultimately, the BV475 Trek is an excellent choice for those seeking a midsized bear-resistant storage option that is both practical and convenient, without compromising on the quality and reliability that BearVault is known for. It's a great balance of portability, capacity, and bear-worthiness, making it an ideal companion for your next backcountry excursion.
