Shop / bear canister for backpacking
Armored Outdoor Gear, a manufacturer based in Flagstaff, Arizona, specializes in creating Stainless Steel mesh bags for food and gear protection from animals during camping and backpacking trips. Additionally, the company manufactures bags, totes, satchels, and Nap Sacks for use at sporting events, music festivals, university graduations, and conventions that require clear bag policies.
The idea for the Ratsack was conceived in 1996 by the creator while hiking the South Bass trail in the Grand Canyon, where he witnessed mice getting into his food. Recalling the stainless steel mesh material from his Navy days, he believed it could provide effective food protection. Upon returning from the trip, the first handmade prototypes underwent field testing.
The Ratsack Large Ultralight Bag offers a wide range of practical uses, making it perfect for backpacking, hunting, camping, backcountry trips, fishing, glamping, kayaking, as a cooler for drinks, water sports, and even prepping. Its lightweight and easy-to-carry design make it suitable for any outdoor activity.
The Ratsack's innovative use of knitted stainless steel mesh creates an unchewable barrier, preventing accessibility by rodents and other critters. The hook-and-loop closure at the top of the bag is challenging for animals to pry open, and the 1/2" grommet allows the bag to twist and swing when hung, making it a moving target for hungry creatures. When paired with the included Coghlan's Odor Proof Bags, the Ratsack effectively deters bears, rodents, and other pests.
While there is no such thing as a "bear-proof" product, the Ratsack, when properly hung out of a bear's reach, is a highly effective bear bag. Customers are advised to avoid spending extra money on claims of "bear-proof" bags or canisters, as the Ratsack paired with Coghlan's Odor Proof Storage Bags is a practical and cost-effective solution.
Proudly made in the USA since 2002, the Ratsack Rodent Proof wire mesh bear bag is crafted in Flagstaff, Arizona, with a stainless steel mesh and a secure hook-and-loop enclosure, making it nearly impossible for rats, ravens, birds, rodents, squirrels, raccoons, possums, mice, and other critters to chew through.
The complete system, including the Ratsack, Coghlan's Odor Proof Storage Bags, Coghlan's 50 ft paracord, and a carabiner, provides a waterproof, odor-proof, ultralight, and spacious solution for all your camping, backpacking, and hunting needs. Backed by Amazon's A to Z 30-day money-back guarantee with Prime eligibility, this versatile kit is a must-have for outdoor enthusiasts.
