Big thumbs-up for the Ursack option! Just my opinion, but I think it's asinine that the NPS (another extension of the nanny-state that the US has become) requires me to haul an overpriced, oversized, 2+ lb hunk of bear canister into black bear country - grizzly territory may be another issue. I've spent a lot of time (40+ years of backpacking, hunting, fishing, and forestry work) around both East and West coast black bears and have never had a problem with a properly hung bag. I primarily backpack with sealed, dehydrated food, with both food and emptied packaging kept in an odor barrier bag (hung in a bear bag at night). If a bear was to crush my food in a properly secured Ursak, I frankly wouldn't care - it's just getting rehydrated with water anyways. I'd rather save 2 lb and a cubic foot of space in my pack while putting in long miles over high passes. Ursack - for adults with the due diligence to make informed decisions and take personal responsibility for their choices!
