That looks like a custom. To me, it looks bigger than an expedition. Good price.

That was me.

I was going to buy a new one so it still was a bit of a discount. I'll be using it for a 9 day through Evolution Valley this year.

Thanks for the welcome,

I'll certainly post a trip report when I'm back and comment on how the Bear Vault worked. I hike with my son's boy scout troop and they are a purely backpacking troop and hike in full uniform (with campaign hats). We generally hike about 110 - 130 miles a year and I've loved every mile I've hiked in the Sierras and Southern California.

I'm really impressed with the Bearikade so far and and as a plus It's much more comfortable as a seat than the Bear Vault BV500 I have.
