A classic for shorter trips, the BV450-Jaunt® is the ideal bear canister for a weekend trip for two, or a solo trip for a few days. Compact enough to fit into smaller packs, yet spacious enough for a wholesome amount of food, the BV450-Jaunt® keeps your food safe, protects bears and other wildlife, and keeps your backcountry jaunt going, storing 3-4 days of food.

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 all the way 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
Fits about 4 days of food for one person.
