They do not have community bear vaults, this isn't as developed a park like Yellowstone. Carson National forest I think is a little more rugged. They said you can store in your car if the bears can't see it like a trunk but we have a Subaru Forester. I am assuming using the cover for the cargo area is not sufficient.

We're trying to see if anyone rents them near there or a friend has one. I guess the container could be handy for raccoons and other things we encounter at mountain bike races. We have over 3 weeks, just making sure we have plenty of time to get one if needed.
