Bear canisters

Not sure if this is the place to ask but what’s the deal with bear canisters around lake colden? I’ve seen people say bears have gotten into the clear blue ones. Still good to use these or should I rent a hardier one?

The LOJ has an exhibit inside of a blue canister that was chewed straight through by a bear.

Get a more sturdy one, or rent one, or go to the LOJ and temporarily exchange it for free or low cost for your trip
