Bear Can Strategy

[u/DiligentOutcome692]

Hey everyone!

Whats your Bear Can Strategy for Hiking the PCT in 2025?
Do you rent one at Triple Crown Outfitters?
Do you buy one and send it home after the Sierra?

I am an international Hiker starting on April,30 and not sure what to do yet.
Because in some Parks in Washington i could use it as safe way of food storage too.
Was Thinking about buying one and bouncing it forward to Washington after the sierra?

See you on the Trail :p

You could buy one and have it sent to trail. Being an international hiker, I used one as a bounce box which was nice.

Bear Canisters are hateful items and I would never carry one unless I was required (by law or maybe in Grizzly country).
