How we secure our food at night. Without bear hangs.

Food secured at LeMaitre island

Protecting food at night is a priority in bear country.

There are various ways. The most common/traditional way is a bear hang, that is putting a rope over a suitable high branch and securing your food in a bag and hoist it up in a rope.

The modern upgrades we are using are Kevlar bags that the bears cannot tear open, tied closed and tied to a tree.

And that there is the “butterbox” for any squashable items. It a plastic can the bears can neither crack nor carry away

    Finally stumbled onto a casino that actually delivers on its promises. Withdrawals are processed without the usual run around and the slot collection keeps getting refreshed with fresh titles. Staff are polite and the whole vibe feels trustworthy from day one. bbrtcasino
