Any suggestions on a small, lightweight bear cannister?

I have a Bear Vault 450 which is a little bulky for 2-3 day trips.

Thanks,

Mike

if budget permits, there's only one kind - Bearikade Scout (the smallest they sell - it is listed on the purchase page, but not much info on it on the web site - $195)

here's the link to the bare boxer site

I used the bare boxer 101 on a 3 day trip in early Sept. Worked great for me.

A friend just bought this model for our weekend up whitney, and really liked it for the size and light weight. I'm toying with picking one up myself.

My husband has the bearikade scout and really likes that too - if you are willing to fork out the dough for it.

Bear Vault also makes a "solo" model that you may want to consider, assuming you like your Bear Vault 450.
