carbon--oooooo here we go again with the "leave the food out hanging" or "bring it in the tent with you" ...."debate"
I put quotation marks on "debate" because, as I have responded a while back on another thread like this, I disagree with you 100%.
You have your point of view, but I do urge people reading this who do not have outdoor experience, to please look into all and any hiking, canoeing, whatever club, groups, etc recommendations on food management in critter country (particularly bears) which does NOT recommend this practice.
respectfully yours
