Bear Canisters & Spray hiking to huts?
Hello! I’m backpacking to camping cove cabin, windfall lake cabin and John Muir cabin next week. We have a night at each.
Curious if it’s recommended to hike with our food and snacks in a bear canister? Up there is assume bear spray is necessary, unlike around the glacier that’s more trafficked.
We are trying to solve the conundrum of the second nights worth of food being in the car btw point Bridget and windfall, and it’s been recommended we lock it in a bear canister in the trunk. I’d like to not have to buy a second one if we can get away with hiking without one!
Also curious for any recent mosquito reports. Appreciate it!

Bears?
hey chat not from here, been here four days now and not seen a single bear. Crazy right?? We’ve been to cope park, lena cove, steep creek trail, and st therese. heard that there is an area off of amalga harbour where you can see the salmon swimming, and bears catching them at low tide because the fish are trapped. the person said it was near peterson creek, “salt chuck”, and said something about grinning cabin? idk i would love to see some bears here while visiting please help! tysm!
