Re: [Philmont]: Wildlife Proof Food Container (Bear can)

I tested them. Bears did not get into them. However in the models I
tested, there was no way to keep them around. 1 of them we found about 100
yards from camp. 1 about a mile, (happened to be by the trail) and one we
never found. I had visions of the bears playing soccer with them.
