There is no uniform testing or approval mechanism in place the National Park or Forest Services. Every park has its own standards for acceptable bear-resistant containers. Some parks require bear-resistant containers, but do not specify any particular brands. Always contact the Park you will be visiting BEFORE you bring URSACK (or any other container).
