I see this discussion is a few years old, but for what it's worth I would suggest a GrubPack. I've discussed this on another page in the past. It's a wire mesh bag for keep rodents out of your food. It's light, strong and affordable. I'm sure you can find it with a google search.

Grubpack, Ratsak, Canisters on 11/06/2009 04:04:12 MST Print View

Looks like the Grubpack and Ratsak are two versions of essentially the same thing...both wire mesh that prevents gnawing thru. I see most folks here are from the west, but here in the Adirondacks we have to use bear canisters - they're required a good part of the year in a good part of the ADK's. With that said, most retailers rent the canisters, but I've never seen anyone here that rents any of the sack type systems.
