These have become essential. Whether you're trying to smuggle weed past the drug-sniffing dogs at the border, salami past the bears in King's Canyon or packing out your used TP (like you should).
They are durable enough and some have lasted me season to season, but I'd like to see them a bit tougher particularly the sealing mechanism.
Sure, pretty much everything is 'biodegradable'...eventually. At altitude, matter degrades very slowly. One packs it out because one can and it's easy...also because it's lazy and fucking rude to leave trash in the pristine wilderness. I'm glad that you've never shown up at a lake 10k' up in Sequoia after a bunch of asshats' shallow poop holes were raided by critters and now soiled tp is blowing around. ...or barely covered or sticking out from under a rock...etc.
Just pack it out with the rest of your trash. Problem solved.
MotorradAh okay - I'm not really a camper but the couple of times I've had do deal with wilderness waste was with a group. Definitely made more of a deep latrine because of that - never occurred to me that one would just dig a toy pit or not cover it.
Hi MD. I know it is a bit late but personallly I would feel much more comfortable knowing this is coming from LOKSAK or a legitimate distributer. LOKSAK specifically warns that some of its outdated products are being sold on eBay and Amazon on their website. If this comes back can we get a rep to verify this is legitimate product that LOKSAK approves being sold?
ChicagoWayGood question. We are getting these direct from LOKSAK. They've been great to work with. I didn't know that about ebay and amazon selling bad versions of their sacks, though I'm not surprised. Thanks for posting your PSA :)
Sinderlingi have a pair of the 7x7 inch bags that i haven't used but im pretty sure i remember reading on the literature somewhere on it that you CAN pour boiling water on the INSIDE of the bag because it is coated/lined with something but you can NOT dip/submerge the bag in a pot of boiling water because it doesn't have that same lining material on the outside.
From my experience, these are overpriced and mostly a waste of time. I had an opsak bag filled with unopened dehydrated food in mylar bags hanging up inside of a Ursak kevlar bear bag and woke up to a mother bear and two cubs clawing at the thing trying to tear it out of the tree. I packed the bag with clean hands and checked it for punctures before use. There's no reason an animal should have found it if it's as "smell-proof" if it claims it is. This is not a substitute for a bear canister/bear bag, and I definitely wouldn't suggest using these to get past sniffing dogs.
