I just read this on "Section Hiker." I looked, and sure enough! It's the S29 All White version, which is the only one approved by the Interregional Grizzly Bear Committee. Those of us with Ursacks made before April 2015 are stuck with non-approved containers, so probably should think about an upgrade. REI's price is a dollar more than on the Ursack website, but with free shipping and this month's 20% off REI coupon, that becomes a real bargain.

Do check local regulations; not all jurisdictions use the IGBC list, especially the California national parks. California black bears are a special breed--smarter than your average bear!

Those who have the specific S29 All White model purchased prior to April 2015 can send them back to Ursack for a retrofit. That doesn't help me because I bought mine--much older model--back in 2006. mad
