[QUOTE="PT Stewie, post: 981652, member: 12889"] I am very familiar with hanging bear bags while camping in bear country .You put everything in food ,toothpaste,soap anything that smells.There is actually an art to it finding the right tree ,height,placement and technique to securing your cache.Displaying learned behavior bears have been known to smell food in an area stand on their hind legs and swat the air and bingo hitting and breaking the tie ropes a bag of goodies appear! You should also maticulousley clean your cook and eating wear and bury any scraps (very little when you are backpacking) in your cleaning sump away from your tent. Some places like shelters on the Appalachin trail there are ground metal lock boxes provided a little way from the shelter for food and smellables (deodorant is a no no).I have seen a black bear crunching on a squirrel just sitting there under a tree like he was eating a piece of fried chicken.Southern fried since it was Virginia LOL.
