$45

I used it once in the Adirondack High peaks last month. No bears touched it. It’s essentially brand new and in the box.

If you do any backpacking it’s usually required to carry one in state and national parks. Rangers do check for them. Plus, you don’t want to get eaten by a bear. :bigtup:

I know some of you do or want to go backpacking/camping, your going to need one of these and this is the same price as renting one.
