Why We Like The Major Bear Bag
Prevent pesky bears from snagging a midnight snack with the Major Bear Bag from Ursack. Made with "bulletproof" material, the Major Bear Bag can withstand attacks from creatures or critters as it's suspended with the 6-foot tensile cord from a nearby tree. And it's easy enough to set-up in camp that you'll be able to clean the dishes and protect the rest of your food fast enough to squeeze in a few games of rummy before calling it a night.

Dog Resistant
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I haven't been camping since I received this product to test but I do have a dog. I put some food and treats in it before tying it up and putting it on the floor. She went over to it and sniffed the outside and gave it a few licks before nibbling the bag in a few spots. It held up well against her until she discovered the drawstring. Maybe it has more to do with with my knot tying abilities and that I give her treat puzzles but she was able to get into the bag in a few minutes. I'd be willing to give it a shot camping since wildlife wouldn't be as close to it as I let my dog get

This is a top quality bag
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sack is your one stop shop. It is easily portable and you can take it where ever you want. It has drawstring’s that act as a handle and are utilized to secure the opening from being opened. The material is thick but not overly thick and it is very ridged. You can place food, clothing, medicine, basically anything you want and they come in different sizes to meet any of your needs.

Heavy duty bear hang bag
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging of the sack is nice looking. The labeling says that it is bear resistant, but that certain critters may create small holes. That would make this less useful if you were traveling in an area where mice were a problem. Like a bear bag or bear canister they do recommend that you deploy it separately away from your camp at night. they also mention other accessories like an aluminum liner to prevent crushing and puncture, as well as an odor barrier bag that they sell. My experience is that this would serve fine as a bear bag, but would not replace a bear canister. In areas where a bear bag is required, it will still be necessary to hang the bag. In an area where a bear canister is required, you might get a ticket if found using this container instead. It does say that it is certified resistant by the interagency grizzly bear committee, but this is likely not accepted by many management agencies like the national forest service or national Park service. while they do not say what the fabric blend is, it feels like it contains Kevlar to me. Closing the bear bag is simple in theory, but may be difficult for people with limited strength in their hands and or arms. I plan to use this as a heavy duty bear hang bag. It is slightly heavier than a typical nylon bag, but it would certainly hold up to abrasion better than a normal bag.  I would not leave it on the ground at night.

Camping essential!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have not had a chance to use this yet but it feels like quality fabric and I love that it's made in the USA. Will be a great thing to bring camping over the summer.

Thick woven material and high tensile cord
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bag is definitely made of thick, woven material that will prevent bears from ripping into your stored food. It is designed to fit into a backpack. The material is thick and strong and although most things can be punctured by a bear claw or crushed, I don’t see this bag being ripped apart.
