Yep, it sure is confusing. When I went into Denali,there was a ranger with a Bear Vault. However, Denali gives out Garcias, which are so huge for one person. We just get Garcias in Denali & share. Truly a bear barrel.

I use the Bear Vault in Denali NP, since I can cram 1 week's food into my solo. The Bear Vault is also great for long weekends with friends where we can all put our food into the solo when we get to camp.

However, we also use Ursacks all over Alaska.

Luckily, our AK Bears haven't become habituated on the Kenai, the Chugach, & Denali like it sounds they have outside. It's only a matter of time, tho...
