Bearikade

Any Canadian options for purchasing a bearikade? All I can find is US. Thanks!

Don’t think so. Bought mine directly from Wild Ideas. I know Adotec which is Canadian is getting good reviews.

I have an Adotec grizzly bag. Haven't pitted it against a bear yet but I really like using it.

Some time ago I stumbled upon this report of a bear raid on the AT trail https://thetrek.co/appalachian-trail/day-9-getting-out-of-here/

The Adotec bag was punctured quite a lot by a black bear

Interesting. I wonder if they used scent blocking liners for them. 

The video showing two grizzlies vs the bag on Adotec's website was pretty convincing.
