Major XL
$124.95
Description

  The Ursack Major XL bear bag is a larger version of the classic Major and holds about 50% more food than its smaller sibling. At 8.8 ounces, the Major XL bear bag is still more lightweight than a traditional bear canister and prevents bears from getting your food in their territory.

  Ursacks are not considered a suitable bearproof container in some areas (such as Yosemite National Park). Please check with the authorities at your destination before purchasing the Ursack.

  Note: Some units may have different color thread or rope than those pictured.

  Please note, none of the Ursack models should be considered wolf or dog resistant. That’s because canines have sharp teeth and strong jaws. Bears have great strength, but their teeth are not sharp.
