Mr. Nutz grandad lived in a very busy established campsite, and he had had lots of practice. <br /><br />Grampy- I think that it might help with a bird feeder, but in a permanent set up wouldn't the squirrel just learn to jump to the feeder? Maybe a cable with a floppy baffle? <br /><br />rainfield- Don't you have to hang your food there? No big animals that will steal it?<br /><br />Hi WiseAcre- Wow, thanks for the compliment! I AM alien in so many ways!<br /><br />Betchai- if they were camping in a popular location where the bears got used to people having food bags then only the very best bear canisters seem to be protective enough. If they were more remote, then they probably did not hang it correctly. Well, I've never had the bears smell my feet thank goodness! We once chased a bear off that had gotten a bag that I hung poorly! I learned my lesson that night.Sharkbyteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10139935335209860357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-406042802207115346.post-23644303006215406932009-04-25T23:52:00.000-04:002009-04-25T23:52:00.000-04:00is it your birthday? Happy Birthday.
I will forwa...is it your birthday? Happy Birthday.<br /><br />I will forward your post to my cousin, this is very interesting. I know before they went backpacking and they forgot to bring a bear proof canister for their foods, they hanged their items on top of the tree like a hanging cache, and the night they felt the black bear visited them smelling their feet, in the morning, they found their cache no longer hanging the tree. am thinking they may have not hanged it properly or the bear just outwit them. <br /><br /><br />happy birthday again.betchaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04754061874315713589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-406042802207115346.post-35170134863709744582009-04-25T20:59:00.000-04:002009-04-25T20:59:00.000-04:00Happy Birthday, you thing from another world, you....Happy Birthday, you thing from another world, you.<br /><br />...Porky Pig<br /><br />Nice Cache.

I knew about hanging the food from a tree, but I wondered what prevented any animal from climbing down the rope.<br /><br /> I wondered why Mr. Nutz was able to defeat me so easily. Grandpa Nutz must have taught him everything he knew.<br /><br />Happy Birthday!Rick (Ratty)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04062449024949497557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-406042802207115346.post-84585101844262021812009-04-25T01:35:00.000-04:002009-04-25T01:35:00.000-04:00Happy Birthday!!!
