Ready for a quick overnight adventure or a day trip into bear country? The BV425-Sprint BearVault is the smallest and lightest in our lineup, designed for solo hikers or groups sharing the load. This compact bear canister offers the same rugged reliability and bear-resistant certification as our larger models, making it ideal for 1-2 day excursions.
Crafted from durable, transparent polycarbonate, it’s easy to see your snacks and gear without emptying the entire container. The wide opening lets you reach everything inside, while the screw-top lid ensures a secure, tool-free seal—no over-tightening needed. Its smooth, rounded shape resists bear leverage and fits comfortably in your pack, with strap guides for easy attachment.
Looking for the best lightweight bear canister for short trips? This model doubles as a camp stool (just close the lid fully to protect the threads) and is approved by the Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee. Weighing only 1.75 lb with a 5 L capacity, it’s perfect for keeping your food safe while you hike, climb, fish, or explore.
